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.
