Stage 2 - 1 min.

Pick up the rolled-out pastry by rolling it loosly around the rolling pin...

Stage 3 - 1 min.

Stage 5 - 1 min.

...then trim of the overhanging edge.

Stage 6

Put the lined tin to wait in the fridge.

Stage 7 - 5 min.

Preheat your oven to 180°C (360°F).

Prepare 800 g Paris flan filling in its pistachio version.

Stage 8 - 30 min.

Pour the filling into the pastry case and put in the oven immediately. Bake for about 30 minutes.

Stage 9

Leave to cool before serving.

Remarks
