    5 ounces plain flour, sieved
    2 ounces butter
    11 fluid ounces milk
    1 ounce caster sugar
    2 egg yolks
    1 pound strawberries, hulled
    2 to 3 tablespoons red seedless jam

    Place 110 g (4 oz) flour into a bowl. Rub in the butter until the
    mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add 2 tablespoons milk and mix to
    a dough. Roll out on a floured work surface and line an 18 cm (7
    inch) flan ring. Bake at 200 C / 400 F / Gas 6 for 15 minutes.
    Cool.

    Blend 3 tablespoons of milk with the remaining flour and sugar,
    whisk in the egg yolks and milk. Heat the mixture gently stirring
    until the custard thickens, boils and is smooth. Leave to cool.

    Pour the custard into the pastry case. Halve the strawberries and
    arrange on the custard. Warm the jam with 1 tablespoon water and
    use to glaze the strawberries. Serve with cream.
