Ingredients

  • 1 puff pastry home or business
  • 500 g peaches (about 4 nice pitted peaches) sliced into strips
  • 2 limes
  • 50 g sugar + 2 tbsp.
  • 2 branches of rosemary + 1/2 teaspoon of chopped rosemary
  • 1 oeuf slightly beaten
  • 1/4 teaspoon cornstarch

Instructions

  • Remove the peel from 1 of the limes (in large pieces). Remove the zest from the other lemon and squeeze it to recover its juice.
  • In a bowl, mix 50 g of sugar and the juice of 1 lime. Add the peach slices, rosemary sprigs and lime peel. Filter and let marinate for 1 to 2 hours (at least 40 min).

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F)

  • Drain the peaches and collect the juice, set aside.
  • Roll out the puff pastry on a floured work surface. Form a disk about 26 cm in diameter and 0.5 cm high (I do it by eye), and transfer to a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
  • Spread the drained peach slices over the surface of the dough, leaving a small border on all sides (about 5-6 cm). Fold the sides over the peaches.
  • Brush the dough with beaten egg and sprinkle with 1 to 2 tablespoons of sugar. Bake for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix cornstarch with peach juice in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and allow to thicken to a syrupy (honey-like) consistency.
  • Take the tart out of the oven, pour the syrup over the fruit and sprinkle with chopped rosemary. [this is also when Ottolenghi puts the butter cubes on the fruit, but I don't add them].
  • Return to the oven for 15 minutes. Let it cool and enjoy.

Notes

You can also make the pie in individual sizes. In this case, I leave no border (so no need for egg or sugar sprinkles) and top with peaches in a rosette shape.
