Ingredients

Servings: 8
  • 100 g Sugar
  • 100 g Butter
  • 50 g Almond slivers
  • 150 g Flour
  • 1 Egg Yolk
  • 7-10 Tbsp (size M)
  • 1 package Curd cheese fine lemon
  • 300 g Whole milk yoghurt
  • 375 g Strawberries
  • 4-5 Tbsp Strawberry Jam
  • 125 g Whipped cream
  • 7-10 Tbsp Aluminium foil
  • 7-10 Tbsp Fat and breadcrumbs
  • 7-10 Tbsp Flour

Directions

  1. 1

    Melt 25 g sugar and 1 teaspoon butter over medium heat to a golden yellow caramel. Fold in almond slivers so that they are completely covered with caramel. Spread on oiled aluminium foil and allow to set.

  2. 2

    Grind 2/3 of the brittle finely. Knead flour, remaining butter in small pieces, 50 g sugar, ground brittle, egg yolk and 2 tablespoons ice water to a smooth dough. Wrap in foil and chill for about 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Grease 8 tartlet cups (10 cm Ø each) and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Roll out the dough thinly on a floured work surface. Cut out 8 circles (approx. 12 cm Ø) and press them into the moulds.

  4. 4

    Prick the dough several times with a fork and bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for about 15 minutes. Turn out of the moulds when hot and let cool down. Whip cream powder with 200 ml milk and 250 g quark in a tall beaker for approx. 2 minutes until creamy.

  5. 5

    Cold. Spread the quark mixture into the tartlets and put them in a cool place for about 1 hour. Wash, clean and slice the strawberries. Warm up the jam and pass it through a sieve. Cover the tartlets with the strawberry slices and cover with jam.

  6. 6

    Whip cream and remaining sugar until stiff and sprinkle onto the tartlets. Serve sprinkled with the rest of the roughly crushed brittle. Makes 8 tartlets.
