Tarte tatin is a traditional French dessert and Raymond Blanc&#8217;s recipe is divine – dark caramel, sweet apple and crisp pastry. Serve with crème fraîche or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Raymond Blanc&#8217;s tarte tatin

(around 6) Braeburn apples, peeled, cored and

caster sugar

unsalted butter, diced

unsalted butter, melted

all-butter puff pastry,

Pre-heat your oven to 180°C/160°C/gas 6.

Put the tarte tatin dish on the hob, and over a medium heat cook the sugar and diced butter to a brown caramel. The Emile Henry dish is ideal for making sure the caramel stays dark but doesn&#8217;t burn.

Arrange the apple quarters very tight, around the edges first, with the core facing up and towards the centre, then fill in the middle part of the mould the same way, press with your hands gently to ensure there are no gaps, and brush with melted butter.

Cook in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Remove from the oven and place the disc of puff pastry on top, tuck in the edges and, with a knife, prick a few holes in the top to allow some of the steam to escape during cooking.

Cook in the oven for a further 40 – 45 minutes until the puff pastry is golden brown and crisp.

Allow to cool at room temperature for about 1 hour before de-moulding, apple-side up, on to the serving platter.

Learn how to make garlic confit in the oven with this simple recipe. To make confit garlic, peeled garlic cloves are slow-roasted in olive oil. The result is a garlic-infused oil and silky, mellow garlic to add to toast, sandwiches, pasta, veggies, etc.
