Portugese Tarts

I sometimes make these little tarts as they are not sold in many shops.
I can eat four at once as they are so good.

Re: Portugese Tarts

They look rather inviting Azure.

What's in 'em though?

Re: Portugese Tarts

I feel hungry

What is the filling, Azure?

Re: Portugese Tarts

They look scrummy but in all honesty nothing like real Portuguese Pastel De Natas.

I have never found a replacement for a genuine Nata whether it be a bakery attempt or an internet recipe.

The true Portuguese recipe and ingredients seemingly just can't be recreated elsewhere.

None of which is to say that other recipes like yours don't make nice results, they do, I made them myself, it's just that they don't come close to a real a Pastel de Nata.

Re: Portugese Tarts

Every time I go to Little Portugal, I buy a dozen. One at a time is never enough. Just love them.........

Please give us the exact measurements for each ingredient if you will. It will be appreciated. I would love to be able to make them, and I will try. I am sure I can do it, since the pastry is puff pastry.

Re: Portugese Tarts

Ah, thank you, Azure.

I bet they're tasty with a cuppa.

PS, the picture is so inviting with the flowers.

Re: Portugese Tarts

They look scrumptious Azure !
I'm afraid if I made them it would be too tempting !
Azure do you have Portuguese ancestry just wondered ?
