A treat for the weekend – Pastéis de Nata (Portuguese Custard Tarts)
I've always wanted to make Pastéis de Nata but thought they looked quite difficult but I found this recipe which was really easy and they've come out really well. It's a bit of a cheat recipe as it uses ready to roll puff pastry but still tasted delicious. Give them a try!
