DJ - I made this pastry in the Thermomix.
http://www.waitrose.com/home/recipes/step_by_step/how_to_make_sweet_pastry.html

Creamed butter and sugar added egg. Then used  to add flour until all combined. Chilled before and after rolling out.
This amount of pastry did the flan, and six mini flan tins now in freezer and the scraps made a 5 inch mini rhubarb tart also frozen.
Added a smidgen of orange rind too.
I used 190g small forced rhubarb but actually think I could have used more.
It has been voted a hit, however a bit more rhubarb would work.
Thanks for the recipe.

Thanks  Thermominoux,  Love Rhubarb and it grows well here.  This looks like a very nice tart.

Very interesting recipe TMX, I don't think I have ever seen unsweetened condensed milk here, luckily for us Uni (fundi&e ) has given us a recipe to make our own.  We have Carnation evaporated milk maybe we could use that, I have Rhubarb growing so I might try this recipe and see how it goes, thanks for posting.

AB I was just wondering about the unsweetened condensed milk too. Lucky me I have just been given some more rhubarb.

I found this comment on the net - what do others think of it.

"Unsweetened condensed milk is sold under that name in european countries. In the US that would be EVAPORATED Milk"

Thermominoux is your unsweetened condensed milk very liquidy like milk or is it thick like golden syrup?

[droverjess]

Well  that figures as I had another rhubarb  recipe once which used eggs and evap milk in a tart.
Evap milk does not have added sugar I was reading the ingredients on Sunday while making chookies choc delight!

Hello,
the unsweetened condensed milk is relatively liquid unlike sweetened condensed milk which is thick. Here in France I use Regilait brand. May be Nestle Carnation creamy or evaporated milk may be alternatives if you can't find unsweetened condensed milk. I've looked at the composition of Regilait and it seems, just like Nestle's one, to be evaporated milk with no sugar added.
Hope this will help.

Thanks for that.

Bingo!

It's def evaporated milk as in France it's called the same just one has sweetened written on it and the other doesn't but consistency is the same as the equivalents in oz ie evaporated milk is called concentrated milk not sweetened (lait concentré non sucré) and sweetened condensed milk is sweetened concentrated milk..(lait concentré sucré)

Creamed butter and sugar added egg. Then used   to add flour until all combined. Chilled before and after rolling out.
This amount of pastry did the flan, and six mini flan tins now in freezer and the scraps made a 5 inch mini rhubarb tart also frozen.

Added a smidgen of orange rind too. Used rest of evap milk to make chookies chock delight.

It is in the oven now.
I used 190g small forced rhubarb but actually think I could have used more.

For supper tonight we have a visitor.
