chocolate and pear tart

I tried this for a dinner party and it went down a treat, though unfortunately it looked a bit overcooked cause i think 190 is way too hot. I think for fan oven i put it in at 170 and even think that is too hot. Maybe a fan oven at 160 would be ok.<br />

is it easy to make, or is it abit complicated. i have some pears, at home. and i googled a recipe with pears, and this came up! sounds delicious but is it easy?

Bren, baking blind means you have to use either baking beans (ceramic) or rice to fill up the pastry. without this, the pastry will puff up as you had already found out.

This was my dessert for Xmas last year, and it looked and tasted great. If I made it again I would stew the pears first, as they were a bit too firm for my liking. Otherwise, very tasty, and looked nice on the table.

This is so gorgeous and easy. I make it without the pastry and in individual ramekins. I like to stew the pears gently with some spices first so that they are soft when the desserts are cooked (doesn't take long without the pastry and in a ramekin). My other tip is to use Green & Blacks Maya Gold chocolate, a dark chocolate with hints of spice and orange zest. SUPER duper delicious.

just tried to make this and the pastry puffed up huge when i baked it in the oven for the ten mins like it said!!! i didnt use a tart tin cause i dont have one, i used a spring cake tin thingy - is that why?? can anyone help? thanks

I was presented with a lot of pears by a neighbor and after googling came upon this recipe and this fantastic site.<br /> Great recipe, quick and easy to make and the tart looks so pretty!

Can I freeze the chocolate and pearand almond tart that that is on the jamie website

This is the most delicious dessert EVER. The first time I made it really liked it, but now I make it without the pears and the pastry so it just looks like a cake. I'm off to make it now. Try what I do if you're a serious chocaholic. Oh, and I use milk chocolate instead of dark.

Delicious! Made this tonight for a dinner party and it was great! Very easy to make and it's not too heavy for a chocolate dessert!

Perfect dinner party dessert. Simply divine with pouring double cream or creme fresh. Sooo easy too.

Great ...... another dish where there was nothing left over for me for breakfast !!!!

Cheers mate! Even my girlfriend's daughter, a thirteen years old mischief queen, was charmed!

Delicious & simple to make. I reduced the amount of chocolate to 150g, added a bit of milk to it when microwaving to keep it liquid and smooth. It was a huge hit!
