Blueberry and Lemon Curd Mascarpone Tarts

The lemons bring out the blueberry flavours and I think this is one of those cases were 'two tangs make a right'!

In this recipe, I made lemon curd, a rich custard-like mixture courtesy of the English. It can get pretty expensive when store-bought but it’s quite easy to make on your own! You can use it for a range of desserts and pastries, or serve it traditionally with scones.

I took an extra step to make this tart delicious by adding mascarpone. Think of it like thick whipping cream.

For the pastry, you could use regular pie dough, however, the puff pastry will give you that flakey texture which is perfect for small tarts like this. These are great for breakfast pastries, tea time, or dessert, and they scream summertime.
