Classic lemon tart recipe with tricks to a perfect smooth tart shell-key lime pie

Lemon tart, or more accurately, lime and orange tart: When you bite into this tart, the creamy lemon custard hits your palette first, followed immediately by the buttery, crisp shortcrust pastry. The lime custard is as tart as it is sweet-it makes your face pucker at the first bite and jolts your senses into attention! With every subsequent bite you grow accustomed to the sourness. You start appreciating the contrast of the creaminess and the crunchiness, as well as the fragrance of the citruses-lime and orange in our case.
Follow this recipe and you will be gifted with a tart better than anything you can buy from a shop-that is because the tarts sold in most pastry shops in India are made to have longer shelf lives, and they skimp on the butter. They also rarely bake the custard in the shell, choosing instead to make it separately and pipe it in once cool. It certainly makes for a more substantial (and impressive) presentation to serve one large tart to your guests and cut it into wedges at the table, than the small mini tarts that are usually available in pastry shops. We hope you give this a try while the weather is still cool. DO NOT attempt this in the warmer humid months.

This is not just a simple recipe , but a complete art that is demonstrated in just 10 mins.. Great..

[@soumyadeepghosh1585]

@Shady Queens yeah! They haven't been posting anything for so long!

[@sanjoyghosh4625]

Simple recipe🤔

[@sunderkoppisetti2448]

Even Sanjeev Kapoor Can't explain the way u guys have explained everything with Minute details.. And the best part abt ur Videos is giving due courtesy to those chefs where u learned all the tricks and tips.. Never seen such youtube channel being genuinely professional like u guys are..❤❤ Looking forward for more such delicacies :)

Absolutely. No chef does

[@ankitad1585]

[@roohchowdhury8378]

True.. Haven't seen such finesse in any KZbin Videos. My 11 year old son will offen steal my phone to watch your videos esp because he feels the need to salivate at times and every minute detail is so perfectly taken care off.. That includes the background music

[@aishwaryapadhi6576]

This video was therapeutic to watch. I was learning and getting mesmerized at the same time. Way to go guys!

[@titashban]

Completely agree.. A visual treat

[@aturma178]

To be very Frank I have never tasted lime tart in my life but after watching your video I think I am gonna make it ...plus background score is perfect ...

[@anujoshi209]

Lemon tarts are the best. I make mini ones and they are gone in no time. My family and friends love them. They do take up a bit of work but so worth it. Hope yours came out well:)

They never make food,they always make "Artpieces" ♥

[@Shritii]

I have been searching for the best lemon tart recipe since the lockdown. I mainly looked up foreign bloggers for recipes but found yours to be the best! It's like I searched the entire world to find the perfect one right in my backyard! I love the way you have mentioned details like resting the custard, using a fork to incorporate the crust and so on. Though I did lose patience with the crust after a while and did not refigerate it as much but the custard was perfection!

[@chrisjohn2533]

This is by far one of the most spectacular food videos i have ever seen. Art & cinematography meets food. Keep the great content coming.

Perfectly executed. Just watching the making process filled me with such delight. And of course, the tart looks amazing :-)

[@gurpreetpoonia1011]

Oh that cup of black coffee just nails it !! Perfect !! Thanks Bong eats ,this is divine!

[@ankitaghosh6272]

It's just lovely the way you guys provide an explanation behind every step. Most of the professional chefs never mention the reason behind some techniques which they follow. But you explain it so beautifully and that's the reason we connect with you so much! P. S : Can you please share some quick and easy bachelor friendly bangali recipes?

[@arijeetbhattacharya5972]

Just amazing GUYS! One of my favourite tarts , savouring my mouth while watching.... cheers

[@sweetankhiheart]

Hats off to you guys!! I really wonder how much effort and time and how many attempts you give in every recipe to get it done perfectly. Each and every instruction is so clear that anyone can depend on it blindly. Kudos to you for presenting us with so many unique and beautiful recipes! Love you! ❤️❤️ PS: I tagged you in my photos of Vegetable chop which I made following your recipe. I posted it to facebook too, and all of my friends are asking for recipe and I proudly shared your channel link.

[@BongEats]

Thank you, Sangeeta. You you, after you commented last time I tried looking for your post/photo. But could not find it. It just have gotten buried something. 😒 Sorry about that!

[@sweetankhiheart]

Bong Eats hey you liked that photo. It’s showing on my insta account. I dont know how but its showing that you liked my photos of those wonderful Vegetable chops, which are still sitting in the freezer for future use. Lol.

I see the Jug used for heavy cream and say 'hey maybe this is the one I saw in the Steamed pudding recipe'! I have no idea why I got excited about that when I am in the middle of rushing to office and have a sense of triumph when the tart came out so nice at the end as if I baked it !! Wonderful recipe once again, Bong eats!

A small suggestion : as your video quality is excellent, the cherry on the cake for me would be if you could add some trivia about the dish or something about the history of the dish or its name. You could add it in the video or in the description. Love your work btw. Keep it up.
