We had a lovely dinner last night. THANK YOU! Made 1 big tart this time as a main course (so the cooking time was longer) and I made my own pastry base. I used 1 whole onion, added in 2 eggs, milk, grated nutmeg and freshly ground black pepper. We loved it! Thank you for sharing your recipe. A keeper for sure!
