Kabocha Tart
- 60 grams Unsalted butter
- 50 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 Egg
- 130 grams Cake flour
- 1/4 Kabocha squash
- 50 grams Sugar
- 1 Egg
- 70 ml Heavy cream
- 1 bunch Raisins
- 1 Rum or rum essence
- 1 Mango jam
- For the batter: Bring butter to room temperature and cream until soft.
- Add powdered sugar and beat until white and fluffy.
- Add a beaten egg (also brought to room temperature) little by little and mix well.
- Add the sifted flour and stir until combined.
- Wrap the batter in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge.
- Make the filling while the batter is chilling.
- Remove the seeds from the kabocha squash and rinse well.
- Wrap the squash in plastic wrap and microwave until soft (About 3 minutes in my microwave, but adjust the time depending on the kabocha).
- Spoon out the inside of the squash into a bowl, being careful not to tear the rind, since you will use it to decorate.
- Mash the squash while hot (a wooden pestle works well).
- Add sugar and mix well.
- When it has slightly cooled, add the eggs, heavy cream, raisins and stir well.
- Finally, add the rum or rum essence and mix well.
- Cut out the rind into any shape you like.
- Line a tart pan with pie crust and prick the surface with a fork.
- Pour in the chilled batter and arrange the decorations on top.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 320/160C for 25-30 minutes.
- Brush the baked tart with mango jam, let cool and it's ready to eat.
