    Summer veg tart?
    4 duck eggs
    350ml of cream
    a selection of blanched summer veg (e.g baby leeks, spinach, asparagus, broccoli)
    your pastry.
    Grated Parmesan
    seasoning.

    Line a 9" flan tin with your pastry, blind bake with baking beans ontop of parchment paper @ 180C for 15 mins. Take it out of the oven, remove the beans and the parchment paper. Brush with a little beaten egg and milk and return to the oven for 5 mins to seal. remove from the oven and allow to cool. Beat the eggs, add the cream and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Arrange the veg in your pastry dish and the pour in your egg/cream mixture. Top with a handful of grated Parmesan and return to the oven for 20 minutes or so until puffy and golden.
