Ingredients

1/2 cup seedless strawberry jelly
1 sweet pastry tart case, store-bought
2 cups luxury custard
20-25 medium strawberries, stemmed and sliced in half
fresh mint, optional, for garnish

Directions

Step 1 -Heat the strawberry jam up in a pan or in the microwave to ensure it's loosened and spreadable, for about 30 seconds in the microwave. You can also add a little boiling water to help loosen the jam.

Step 2 -Place the tart case on a serving plate.

Step 3 -Spoon the custard into the tart case in a smooth even layer, about 1/2-inch from the top of the pastry.

Step 4 -Place a strawberry half in the center of the tart and, working outward, arrange the strawberries in concentric circles, with the pointed part of the strawberry pointing to the center.

Step 5 -Brush the warm jelly generously all over the top of the tart.

Step 6 -Let the tart set for 5 minutes.

Step 7 -Decorate the tart with the mint leaves and serve.
