Plum and Pistachio Hungarian Tart

Now, why it is called a Hungarian Tart I actually have no idea, but receiving these on Diwali is a core memory for me and one which I truly enjoy. A buttery shortbread base and crunchy crumble encase a jammy middle to bring the perfect combination of buttery and jammy.
This year, I adapted the classic with the addition of pistachios to the shortbread, and used a rich plum jam. It’s a real winner!

Strawberry and Almond Hungarian Tart

To cut through the sweetness, I have also included some fresh strawberries and a bit of almonds for extra crunch. A tried and tested classic, with my own spin. If you prefer to omit the fresh strawberries, that is fine, but I would reduce the jam a bit or the tart will be too sweet.

Chai Spiced Millionaire’s Shortbread

A crisp, buttery base flavoured with chai spices meets a gooey caramel layer all finished off with a thin melting of dark chocolate.
