Mix the flour, salt and sugar together and then crumble in the butter.
Add the egg and knead together until a big dough ball is formed.
Place the dough in a plastic bag in the fridge for about half an hour. Pre heat the oven to 180C
Take out the dough and press it into a pie dish and prick the surface with a fork and bake for 20 minutes until golden brown and then set aside to cool.
Once cool - I prepare the case the day before - fill with custard and the slice up all your fruit and arrange on top.
Put the jam and the liqueur into a saucepan and boil up until it is a liquid. Then pour over and use a pastry brush to even the glaze. Leave to set for at least an hour in the fridge before serving
yep, another great summer treat Ilike the glaze idea carol gonna use it soon
Beautiful!
