APRICOT PECAN CRUMBLE TART
Break out the butter and sugar; it's time for a spot of baking. Apricot Pecan Crumble Tart with a buttery, crisp pastry base; squidgy vanilla, apricot and almond filling then sprinkled with a brown sugar and pecan crumble topping - sounds pretty delish doesn't it?

When I'm going for convenience over authenticity cooking Thai-inspired curries, I reach for a curry paste. In this instance, red curry paste. I usually have about three or four different
TOMATO TARTE TATIN
Although it may not be tomato season, grape & cherry tomatoes are always available. With a handful of ingredients, this Tomato Tarte Tatin requires so little work but the end result is simple, rustic & delish. Tomatoes, ready-made puff pastry, a little sugar & balsamic vinegar is all that's required to produce the sweet, tart flavors. With some fresh herbs scattered at the end for prettiness. One thing to to be diligent about - once the tarte has it's rested for 5 minutes then serve
