I was so pleased with the peart tart I made a couple of weeks ago (well, it is the ideal excuse to OD on clotted cream :-)), I'm making another one for tomorrows Sunday lunch with @louisbosco and fam.

Poaching the pears (cloves added this time @jordanscollected :-))....

[louisbosco]

@Giles damn that looks good!! Hungry looking at that. just remember it’s dinner not lunch

[Giles]

Slip of the tongue, I remember.......

[Giles]

@endo asked me for the tart recipe. So here you are. I have used pears from the garden, no idea what type they are, they are slightly hard, hence poaching them...
