    MMMMM-----------------------FOR THE CRUST----------------------------
    225 g Sweet pastry; (8 oz)

    MMMMM----------------------FOR THE FILLING---------------------------
    4 Eggs
    175 g Caster sugar; (6 oz)
    300 ml Golden syrup; (10 fl oz)
    1 pn Salt
    2 dr Vanilla essence; up to 3 dr
    225 g Pecans; (8 oz)

    Pre-heat the oven to 180 C / 350 F / gas 4 and grease a 20 cm / 8"
    flan tin or flan ring on a baking sheet.

    Roll out the pastry and use to line the flan tin or ring. Line the
    pastry with grease-proof paper, fill with baking beans and bake blind
    in the pre-heated oven for 15-20 minutes. Remove the beans and paper
    and leave to cool. Increase the oven temperature to 200 C / 400 F /
    gas 6.

    To make the filling, beat the eggs lightly in a bowl, then add the
    sugar, syrup, salt and vanilla essence. Stir in the pecans. Pour the
    mixture into the cooked flan case and bake in the pre-heated oven for
    10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 180 C / 350 F / gas 4
    again and bake for a further 35 minutes until set. You may need to
    cover the tart with foil to prevent any burning. Allow the pie to
    cool, then serve with clotted cream.
