Portugese Egg Tart

Yesterday just before berbuka puasa with our guests, dear hubby asked, "Where's the kuih?" I didnt make any. Dessert was Bubur Kacang Hijau with Jagung.

Today, I decided to make some kuih, well, actually its more of a pastry or tart. I made Portuguese Egg Tart. I was in a 'playful' mood, so I made them small, and I made them big. Saja je nak seronok-seronok. Last time, whenever I shopped for grocery at Giant, Kelana Jaya - I would, without fail, stop at the bakery at the ground floor to purchase a few pieces of Portuguese Egg Tarts. As of last couple of months ago, the price was RM1.50 each. Now that I have time on my hand - why not make them myself?

I just love Portuguese Egg Tarts. Those who have tasted them before, would be delighted to know that its very easy to make them.

Bahan-Bahan :

Beberapa keping puff pastry - 10 would be enough but it depends on how big you want to make them. (ni style shortcut saya, tak payah pening kepala nak buat pastry sendiri...)

Filling :

100 gram whipped cream
55 gram gula
1 keping cheddar cheese - di potong halus
125 ml susu segar (sometimes, kalau tak ada susu segar, saya gunakan powder milk anak saya, pun boleh jalan jugak..)
2 biji telur ayam
Sedikit essence of vanilla

Cara Membuat :

1. Lembutkan puff pastry pada suhu bilik.
2. Panaskan separuh dari whipped cream dan masukkan gula. Kacau sehingga gula larut.
3. Masukkan baki whipped cream tadi bersama potongan cheddar cheese, dan kacau sehingga sehingga keju cair. Padamkan api.
4. Di tempat lain - pukul telur bersama susu segar sehingga sebati. Masukkan sedikit essen vanilla.
5. Masukkan bahan telur ke adunan whipped cream tadi. Pukul lagi sehingga sebati.
6. Panaskan oven .
7. Sapu butter di acuan - masukkan puff pastry dan tekan. Gunting lebihan puff pastry.
8. Tuangkan filling ke dalam puff pastry tadi.
9. Masuk dalam oven dan bakar pada suhu 225 degrees selama 20 minit atau sehingga kekuningan.

I cant remember where I got the recipe for Cream Cheese Filling from. Must either be from AllRecipes.com or other other food sites. But if it is your recipe - please do let me know so that I can acknowledge you accordingly. Thank you.
