Chocolate and toasted nut tart from The Kitchen Diaries II (page 417) by Nigel Slater

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    This is a great store-cupboard but special dessert. The tart filling is very rich with crunch interest from the nut praline. I used hazelnuts and pecans but I think you could use any nuts. Some notes - he says serves 6 but you could easily serve 10-12 as it's so rich (and the book's own photo shows 5 decent slices from half the tart). Another thing about the photo - the bare nuts on the top have obviously been sprinkled on after the filling is spread in the tart, so keep some larger pieces of nut back for that rather than mixing all the nut praline into the filling as instructed. And finally I needed an extra 5 mins in the oven for the tart case to have a decent color and firmness (the hazelnut pastry is delicious - very short). This goes on my repeat list.
