Lemon Tart With Mango and Dark Chocolate Topping

Submitted by Cat R.

"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."
