    Thanks, Chong!

    I used dried chickpeas for the blind baking.

    I finally got around to making this, but it looking nowt like I thought it should. Like BazMo I ended up with a ridiculous amount of filling left over, so don't want to waste it so I might attempt again tomorrow. I haven't made pastry since I was in 3rd year in school, so for my first attempt in 13 years, I think I did ok. I tasted it, and its yum. I can't understand why mine when so dark with a crisp layer on top. Anyways, not to worry, it is yummy!!

    It still looks great though, ChewChew.

    I lowered the oven temperature after baking the case: I did the case at 180 degrees or so and the filling at about 130. For me cheesecake and custard-type stuff seems to bake the way I like at that temperature.

    I've made this a good few times now, it's become my go-to fancy cake. Pastry takes a bit of work and the first go of it wasn't great, but it's really rich so I'm glad I persevered! I brought it into work a few weeks ago and it was devoured and a few people there have tried it out since, so thanks a million!
