    I followed the recipe and it is great. I have served it with a salad as a main course, but also cold as a side dish. I will make this again for sure, and will also adapt it to a vegetarian version for my daughter.

    My 6 year old made this under my supervision and it was delicious, my husband had the leftover slice cold for lunch the next day and it still tasted good.

    I had a complete disaster with this and nearly had to throw the whole lot in the bin. Firstly I had to bulk the egg mixture out with more cream and milk as it was not nearly enough to fill the tin. I also cooked for 45 mins to set, but was unable to get it out of the tin. Upon cutting the whole thing turned into a sloppy mess with the pastry just turning into slime. Not one of my successes!
