Method
- Roll out the pastry, on a lightly floured surface, to line the flan ring. Roll it as thinly as possible, to ensure it bakes properly. Chill. Set the oven to Gas Mark 7 or 220ºC.
- Peel the fruit and slice each one across into 3 pieces. Arrange the slices over the pastry in two layers.
- Mix the sugar, flour and ground cardamom seeds well, then whisk in the cream and then spoon over the fruit in the flan and it will run down between the fruit.
- Bake in the bottom half of the oven for 30-35 minutes until just set. Let it rest for 10 minutes, then cut into wedges.
