Directions:
- Set oven to 400F or gas Mark 6.
- Make the pastry- Sift the flour, salt, cornflour and icing sugar into a bowl.
- Rub in the mixed lard/margarine and bind into a dough with the egg yolk and water.
- Knead the pastry lightly and roll out.
- Grease a 9 inch pie dish and line with the rolled out pastry.
- Bake blind for 15 minutes.
- Reduce oven temperature to 325F or gas Mark 3.
- Remove pie shell from oven.
- Arrange cherries in the pastry case.
- Mix the sugar, eggs and almonds together with the almond essence.
- Pour the mixture over the cherries.
- Bake for 50- 60 minutes until firm and golden.
- Serve hot or cold with cream and/or ice cream.
- NB Baking blind is to place s piece of baking paper in the shell, then fill the shell with split peas (or other appropriate filling).
- The peas and paper are removed when the shell is cooked.
- This causes an even heat to be distributed and at the same time prevents the bottom and the sides of the shell from expanding too much and appearing'lumpy'.
- It also helps give the shell a pale colour so that when it is baked later with a filling it does not go black.
