Lemon Tart With Mango and Dark Chocolate Topping

"From Somerfield Magazine. Mango and chocolate is a stylish, tropical addition to the lemon cream tart. Cook time does not include chill time - required for pastry making, allowing pastry case to cool, allowing lemon filling to cool. This time can be cut down by using a readymade pastry case."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I work in a local museum, training to be a curator. I enjoy baking at weekends, mainly sweet stuff but the BF and I are trying to put a stop to the expanding waistlines. This means fewer, or smaller batches rather than sugar substitutes or margarine. Butter, cream and sugar all the way (in moderation)! It's not a proper weekend unless I've burned myself, probably getting something in or out of the oven. I learnt to knit with the support of the people in the Learn to Knit thread on the craft forum and am now involved with a fun local group. For laughs, I go to quite a few stand-up comedy nights around town.
