Crusty pistachio, almond and apricot flan: Stage 1

Roll out the puff pastry, prick all over with a pique-vite (pastry pricker) and line the tart tin or mould (10"or 26 cm here).

If you are using ready-rolled pastry, you can leave the layer of cooking parchment underneath in the tin.

Put back in the fridge to wait.
