Chocolate Tart

For the chocolate tart, first mix flour with cocoa for the chocolate shortcrust pastry and sift onto a work surface. Add the remaining ingredients in order and knead with your hands to form a dough. Refrigerate, wrapped in plastic wrap, for about 1/2 hour.

Roll out the dough on a floured work surface into a round (36 cm Ø). Place the dough in a greased, floured tart pan (30 cm Ø). Spread the lentils on the dough for blind baking.

Hold the overcooled pan at an angle and remove the loose lentils with a spoon. Sticking lentils can be loosened with the spoon.

Place the pan on the rack in the center of the oven.Top/bottom heat: approx. 180 °Hot air: approx. 160 °CBaking time: approx. 20 min.

Sprinkle the chocolate tart with cocoa before serving.
