Dough (8 servings)
|
Sift the flour in a bowl and shape a hole at the center to put the remaining ingredients. |
 Knead until we have a soft, pliable dough. Make the dough in the shape of a ball, cover, and let aside for later. |
Stuffing
|
Wash and dry the fruits. Cut the nectarines and apricots in small pieces into bite size, removing the pits. Remove the pits from the cherries with a special tool or cutting them in half. |
Put the chopped fruits in a saucepan with a tablespoon of brown sugar and cook over medium heat for 5'-7' until they lose some of their juices. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Sprinkle the remaining sugar, semolina and cinnamon. Add the jam. Stir. |
Divide the dough into two smaller balls. Roll out each ball into a sheet between two baking sheets. One for the base and one on the lid of the pie. Place one sheet in a tart pan, lifting it to cover the sides of the pan. |
Put the fruit mix, to fill the surface of the base sheet. Use a fork to spread evenly. Cover the fruit mix with the second sheet. |
Press together the top with the bottom sheet with a fork, so they stick together. Use a knife to make some cuts radially and at the center to let the steam escape. Spread one egg yolk mixed with 2 tablespoons milk (or just some milk) over the surface of the pie, using a brush. Bake in the oven at 170°C/ 340°F/ Gas Mark 4, for 1 hour. Check the bottom sheet to be cooked and crispy. |
