  3. Using a small knife, lightly score a 1cm border around the edge of the pastry.

  4. Using a fork, heavily prick the base of the pastry (not the border).

  5. Brush the egg onto the border of the pastry.  Then brush the top of the base.

  6. Place onto a baking sheet and bake until risen and golden.

  7. Remove and press the pricked pastry down to form your tart shell. Cool.
