Ingredients:
225g Mascarpone cheese
150g butter
150g self-raising flour
50g dark brown sugar
25g ground rice
3 ripe pears
finely-grated zest of 1 lemon
1 egg
a few drops of almond essence
pinch of cinnamon
Method:
Mix together the flour, rice flour and the lemon zest in a bowl. Add the sugar and the butter and cut the mixture with two knives until it forms a dough. Flour your fingers then press the dough into the base of a 20cm flan dish that's been well greased. Ensure that you press the dough slightly up the sides of the tin then press the dough down well and prick all over with the tines of a fork.
Place the dough in an oven pre-heated to 190°C and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the dough is golden and cooked through. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool for a while.
Prepare the pears by peeling, halving and then scooping out the core. Now cut each pear half into strips about 3mm thick (make certain you keep the overall shape of the pears).
Place the 6 pear halves in the base of the flan tin and open them out slightly to form the shape of a fan.
In a bowl beat the mascarpone, the egg and the almond essence together before spreading the mixture over the pears and the dough. Place the cake in an oven that's been pre-heated to 180°C and bake for about 40 minutes, or until golden.
