Servings: persons

2 medium free range eggs, lightly beaten
125 ml (4.4fl oz) double cream
1 medium courgette, grated (approx. 200g)
125 g (4.4oz) Gorgonzola, crumbled
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 fresh red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
2 tbsp chives, very finely chopped
125 g (4.4oz) plain flour
50 g (1.8oz) butter
30 g (1.1oz) Parmesan, grated
1 medium free range egg
1 cup flour for dusting

1
To make the pastry, process the flour, butter and cheese in a blender until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
2
Add 1 egg beaten with 1 tsp of cold water.
3
Pulse until the mixture just comes together to form a dough, add a little more water if you think its needed.
4
Wrap in cling film and chill for 30 minutes.
5
Preheat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas mark 6.
6
On a lightly floured surface roll out the pastry to the thickness of a 50 pence piece and line your tins, cutting off any excess pastry with a sharp knife.
7
Prick the bases of your tarts and chill for another 30 minutes.
8
Meanwhile make your filling.
9
Combine the beaten eggs with the cream.
10
Gently stir through the grated courgette, 100g of the Gorgonzola, garlic, chilli and chives and give everything a good mix.
11
Season generously.
12
Divide the mixture between the pastry cases.
13
I find it easiest to spoon out the chunks in the mixture then top up the little cases with the creamy egg mixture.
14
Sprinkle over a few more chives and the remaining cheese.
15
Bake for 30-35 minutes.
16
Allow to cool slightly, remove from the tins and serve.
