Preparation
Step 1
First make the pastry: Beat butter until creamy, add sugar, beat until just combined. Add beaten egg gradually, beating well after each addition. Over creaming at this stage will make pastry difficult to handle.
Step 2
Work in 2/3 of sifted flours with a wooden spoon, then remaining flour by hand. Turn on to a lightly floured board, knead lightly until smooth. Refrigerate 30 minutes before using
Step 3
For the filling: Roll pastry on lightly floured board, carefully line a greased 20cm tart plate. Pinch edges decoratively.
Beat eggs, vanilla & sugar together; warm milk, gradually stir into egg mixture. Carefully spoon custard into pastry case.
Step 4
Bake in a moderate oven for 30-35 minutes. After 15 minutes cooking time, sprinkle with nutmeg.
