Directions:
- TO MAKE THE PASTRY:.
- Sift the flour, salt and baking powder into a large bowl.
- Rub (mix) in the butter until it is the texture of crumbs, then mix in the sugar and thyme leaves.
- Make a well in the centre.
- Beat the egg yolks together, then stir into the mixture with a table knife until it forms soft clumps.
- Using your fingers, draw the pastry together into a rough dough.
- Turn out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead into a smooth ball.
- Cover with cling film and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Rub a little softened butter around a plain 9 flan ring.
- Cover a heavy baking sheet with nonstick baking parchment and place the ring in the centre.
- Dust the work surface and rolling pin with flour.
- Lightly re-knead the dough until smooth, then roll out to a round roughly 11 3/4 in diameter.
- Lift the dough over the rolling pin and drape over the ring.
- Press gently into the sides and let the overhang fall on the outside.
- Break off a chunk of pastry and roll into a ball.
- Dip into a little of the icing sugar, then use it to press the dough into the ring.
- Do not trim at this stage.
- Chill the tart pan for at least 30 mins, preferably in the freezer.
- Heat oven to 180C/356ºF.
- Cover the tart pan with a large round of baking parchment, then half-fill with uncooked rice.
- Place in the centre of the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove and lift out the parchment and rice.
- Turn oven to 160C/320ºF wait about 5 mins, then return the case and bake for a further 10 mins until golden brown.
- Remove and cool for 10 minutes.
- Using a small, sharp knife, cut away excess pastry, trimming the ring top.
- Loosen the sides with a knife, pull off the ring and leave to cool.
- The pan should be biscuit crisp.
- TO MAKE THE FILLING:.
- Place the strawberries on a plate, dredge with the icing sugar and vinegar, then set aside.
- Beat the cream with the grated zests until just forming soft peaks.
- Scoop the passion fruit pulp into a small sieve and rub through onto the cream with the back of a spoon, then stir in the creme fraiche and yogurt.
- Stack the large basil leaves together, shape into a roll, thinly slice into shreds, then chop;.fold these into the cream.
- When the base has completely cooled (it doesn't matter if it has broken around the sides a little), assemble the tart.
- Spoon the cream into a piping bag or ziplock without a nozzle, then pipe in small, even dollops over the base.
- Drain the strawberries and press lightly onto the cream.
- Dust over more icing sugar, tuck in the small basil leaves among the strawberries and serve immediately.
