Jill Dupleix's Aussie-inspired bacon and egg tart features a flavorful bush tomato relish.
Ingredients:
  • 1 1/2 sheets frozen shortcrust pastry, thawed
  • 175g bacon rashers, chopped
  • 4 eggs
  • 160ml thickened cream
  • 125ml milk
  • 23.40 gm Dijon mustard
  • 60g cheddar cheese
  • Pinch freshly grated nutmeg
  • Rocket leaves, to serve
  • Bush tomato relish (see related recipe), to serve
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 180C. Grease a 36cm x 11cm rectangular loose-bottomed tart pan with pastry, chill in the fridge for 10 minutes. Prick the pastry base with a fork, line with non-stick baking paper, fill with rice or pastry weights, and bake for 15 minutes. Remove paper and weights, bake for 5 more minutes until dry and crisp. Cool slightly before using.
  • In a frypan over medium heat, sizzle bacon in oil for 5 minutes until crispy. Pat dry on paper towel.
  • Combine eggs, cream, milk, and mustard in a bowl, mix in cheese and nutmeg, then season to taste.
  • Sprinkle half of the bacon on the pastry base, pour in the egg mixture, then top with the rest of the bacon. Bake for 20-25 minutes until fully cooked.
  • Top the warm or room temperature tart with rocket leaves and bush tomato relish before serving.
