Pear Cake - Tarte tartin

This is a great recipe I learned last year in one of Richys Cooking classes here in Clon, its so simple but yet so tasty.

Ingredients for 1 cake:
Ingredient Quantity Comments
Puff sheet 1 Pastry Sheet
Pear 3 pieces
Butter 150 gram
Brown Sugar 100 gram

You need a oven proof pan, add a bit of oil and the butter to the pan and let it melt. add the sugar and let it caramelize, but don't burn it. Split the pears in halfs and take out the core. Once the sugar caramelized place the pears in the pan in a circle. Cover all tighly with the puff sheet and place the pan in the oven at 180 C for 20 Minutes.  Once the puff sheet is golden brown and solid, remove the pan from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes and than place it up side down on a plate, Voila

Thanks to Richy for showing me this simple but so yummi recipe,
you should book a class if you are in town !
