KIWI LIME PIE
This easy dessert recipe uses juicy kiwi fruit to top
the creamy lime filling and crunchy ginger nut base.
An ideal get-ahead pud. Whilst technically not ready
in 30 mins, it can chill whilst you eat your main meal.
Preparation time: 20 minutes, plus chilling
Cooking time: 10 minutes
Total time: 30 minutes, plus chilling
Serves: 8-10
INGREDIENTS
200g ginger nut biscuits
75g unsalted butter, melted
200ml double cream
200g condensed milk
4 unwaxed limes, zest and juice
5 mint leaves, finely shredded
2 Waitrose 1 Perfectly Ripe Kiwis
METHOD
Preheat the oven to 180°C, gas mark 4. Line the
base of a 23cm loose-bottomed tart case with a
circle of parchment. Whizz the biscuits in a food
processor until crushed. Add the melted butter and
whizz again. Tip into the tart case and press in the
base and up the sides with the back of a spoon.
Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
Put the double cream, condensed milk and lime
zest and juice into a mixing bowl and whisk
together lightly with a balloon whisk. Stir through
the mint then pour into the tart case. Chill for at
least an hour.
Top and tail the kiwi fruit, then use a vegetable
peeler to remove the skin. Slice the kiwis, then
tumble over the tart.
COOK’S TIP
Left over condensed milk is brilliant for making
iced coffee, or it can be simmered down to make
caramel. It also freezes well.
