Mini Strawberry Tartlets

These are really easy to make and taste great too! The pastry and jam can both either be bought or made. For this recipe, I bought the pastry and made the Jam.



Ingredients:
Ready to roll pastry
200g Strawberries
100g caster sugar

Method
1. Set oven to 170 degrees.
2. Cut strawberries into chunks and cook on the hob, where the juices come out and the strawberries go mushy.
3. Add in the sugar to the strawberries and leave on a low heat.
4. With the strawberries on a low heat, roll the pastry out and cut out circles. Lay them in a cupcake tray that has been lined with greaseproof paper (I usually cut out large circles of greaseproof paper).
5. Add the strawberry jam that has been made into the pastry cases. Do not fill to the top as the jam expands.
6. The tops can be further decorated with more pastry if desired, for example I made miniature pies and weaved the tops of some of the tartlets.
7. Put in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until cooked.
