Instruction manual
1
Mix flour for dough in a large bowl with salt and sugar.
2
Chopped butter (it is better to put it in the freezer for half an hour beforehand) chopped into a small cube with a knife and grind with dry ingredients.
3
Add water to collect crumbs in a bowl. Wrap in cling film, slightly flatten to make a lozenge, about 12 cm in diameter and put in the cold for at least 30 minutes.
4
Roll out the dough and put into a mold with a diameter of 24 cm, forming the sides. Leave for an hour in the refrigerator.
5
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Pour raw beans onto the base and put in the oven for 20 minutes (this is called blind blind baking).
6
For the filling, mix the water with the berry and sugar in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, boil for 5 minutes, then add starch and brew. Allow to cool slightly and stir in oil and yolks.
7
Preheat the oven to 150 degrees, pour on the base.
8
Beat the whites in strong peaks, pouring sugar in several stages, each time waiting until the previous batch of sweetener is completely dissolved.
9
Put the meringue on the base and bake for 40 minutes to make the meringue crispy and golden.
