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