Peach Tart
Written by Gitam Garden
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Chill time: 30 minutes
Serves: 8-10
For the last couple of weeks the yellow-fleshed peaches have been sweet and delicious, melting in the mouth in a taste explosion. For my friend Jennifer's birthday celebration last weekend I made this peach tart, so simple, made in a matter of minutes and chilled for a couple of hours before we fell upon it. I thought it was huge but it was all eaten in less time than it took to prepare.
