| 1. Mix the egg yolk with the cold water. | 2. Preheat a baking sheet in the oven at 190C, 375°F. | 3.

Add egg yolk mixture and stir into the pastry mixture with a fork, stop when the pastry begins to come together. | 5. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for a few seconds. | 6. Roll the pastry out to 0.5cm thick and fit into a loose-bottomed 24cm fluted tart tin. | 7. Trim excess pastry, leaving a 1cm border. | 8. Chill in the freezer for 10 minutes, then line with baking paper and fill with baking beans. | 9. Cook the heated baking sheet for 10 minutes, remove paper and beans, trim edges again and cook for a further 8-10 minutes. | 10. then remove from the oven. | 11. Reduce the oven temperature to 160C, 325°F. | 12. Make the filling by whisking the eggs and sugar together, stir in the zest, lemon juice and double cream. | 13. Transfer the mixture to a jug and carefully pour it into the pastry case. Bake for 35-40 minutes. | 14. The tart is ready when the lemon cream filling is almost set, but still wobbles very slightly. | 15. Cool completely on a wire rack and then remove it from the tin.
