Method
Place flour, 75g almond meal and Anchor Unsalted Butter in a food processor and pulse until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add water and blend until pastry just comes together.
Roll out dough into a 33cm circle and transfer to a lined baking tray.
Combine egg whites, remaining almond meal, Anchor Cream Cheese and mixed berries and spread evenly over base of pastry, leaving a 5cm border. Arrange strawberries over layer and brush lightly with butter.
Turn overhanging pastry over the strawberries and crimp decoratively. Brush with egg yolk and sprinkle with raw sugar. Bake at 200°C for 30-35 minutes or until golden. Serve warm with ice cream.
Tip :
Do not overcook this tart as the strawberries will collapse.
