  • Last 4 items are for the topping.
  • Use a loose-bottomed flan tin or Pyrex dish. Preheat oven to 190C/375F/gas 5. Have ready a large piece of foil. Roll out the well-chilled pastry, spinkle with cake meal and fit into the tin. Pierce all over with a fork, line base and sides with the foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for a further 10 minutes. Put all pie ingredients (not the topping) into a bowl and beat until smooth, Spoon into the flan case, turn down the oven to 180C/350F/gas 4 and bake until the top is golden brown (about 25 minutes). Leave to cool. This can be used as it is and can be frozen for about 3 months.
  • For the topping, cut the oranges into sections, sprinkle with lemon juice and let it stand for about 1/2 an hour. Bring jam, liqueur and juice from the oranges to the boil, simmer for about3 minutes and cool. Brown the almond pudding wewith the glaze and arrange the drained oranges over the top and then brush with the remaining glaze. Refrigerate until required.
