- Line the pastry with scrunched-up foil and bake for 10 mins. Remove the foil and return to the oven for a further 10 mins.
- Spread the strawberry conserve over the pastry base. Cream together the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy. Gradually beat in the egg, then fold in the almonds and flour. Spoon this mixture over the conserve.
- Arrange the fruit neatly on top and bake in the oven for 20 to 25 mins. Leave to cool for 5 mins before glazing.
