The preparation

Prepare the pastry

• Put the sugar lumps, sliced up butter and water in a saucepan. Melt at low heat then briefly bring to a boil before removing from burner.
• Add the flour and yeast to the pan and mix until there is a ball of pastry.
• While still hot, use your hands to spread the pastry into your pie dish.
• Cook for 20 minutes at 180°C.

Prepare the pastry cream:

• Heat up the milk.
• Beat the egg yolks with the sugar then add the flour.
• Pour in the boiling milk while stirring. Once the cream has thickened, remove from the burner and add the butter, briskly whisking. Let cool down.
• Wash the strawberries and cut them lengthwise.
• Pour in the pastry cream and then the strawberries onto the cooled pie dish bottom.
