Matzo meal crust:
1 cup matzo meal, plus more for patting out crust
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup margarine or butter, cut into chunks
1 large egg

1 cup sugar
1/4 cup potato starch

Preheat oven to 325u00b0.

Make matzo meal crust: In a food processor, whirl matzo meal, sugar, and margarine until well mixed. Add egg and 3 tbsp. water; whirl until dough holds together. Dip fingers in more matzo meal and press the soft dough over the bottom and sides of a 9-in. tart pan with a removable rim.

Bake until crust is darker brown and feels firm when pressed in the center, 30 to 40 minutes.

Meanwhile, make filling: In a small saucepan, mix sugar with potato starch. Stir in zest, orange juice, and lemon juice. Stir over high heat until boiling. Remove from heat and whisk in eggs. Return to high heat and stir just until mixture bubbles. Let cool at least 10 minutes.
5
Spread warm filling in tart shell. Scatter blueberries on top. Serve tart warm or cool, cut into wedges.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
