Tarta cu visine / Sour cherry tart

A trecut sezonul visinelor, dar daca ati apucat sa le congelati, o tarta dulce acrisoare cu visine si aluat fraged e perfecta si racoritoare, mai ales acum pe final de vara sau mai bine zis inceput calduros de toamna :)

Aluat:

• 450g faina
• 200g unt
• 2 oua
• 150g iaurt grecesc
• 1 lg miere (sau indulcitorul preferat)
• 1 lgt praf de copt
• 2 linguri de gris

Umplutura:

• 1 kg visine fara samburi
• 3-4 lg miere (sau indulcitorul preferat, dupa gust)
• 3 lg amidon
• 1 lgt scortisoara pudra

Amestecam cu degetele untul rece taiat cubulete si faina pana obtinem o textura nisipoasa, adaugam apoi restul ingredientelor. Framantam aluatul bine, intindem 2/3 din el cu facaletul si punem foaia obtinuta intr-o tava de tarta (diametru 28cm) unsa cu putin unt si tapetata cu hartie de copt.

O intepam, punem un cerc de hartie de copt si boabe de fasole pe suprafata crustei, pentru a nu se umfla. Coacem crusta de tarta 15 min la 170C. Amestecam visinele bine scurse cu amidonul, mierea si scortisoara, mozolim biiiine tot :)

Presaram grisul peste crusta, apoi punem umplutura si forme din aluatul ramas deasupra. Introducem tarta in cuptorul preincalzit la 170 de grade pentru aprox 45 de minute sau pana se rumeneste putin pe margini. Pofta mare!
