Melktert
(Milk Tart)
This recipe for South African Melktert is quick and easy as it uses the microwave to cook it rather than the traditional way in the oven.
1 packet tennis biscuits (Plain butter biscuits will also do – I also use Vanilla Wafers)
1 tin condensed milk
3 cups warm water
1 tbsp butter
4 tbsp maizena (corn flour)
3 tbsp cold water
1tsp vanilla essence
2 medium eggs
How to Make It
Arrange the tennis biscuits in a dish, making a base for the mixture. Mix the condense milk, margarine, warm water and microwave for 3 minutes.
Mix cornflour, cold water, vanilla essence, eggs and salt separately. Combine the two mixtures. Microwave for 5 minutes on high, stirring every now & then. Slowly pour mixture over the tennis biscuits.
Crush one or two tennis biscuits with a rolling pin and then sprinkle cinnamon and crumbs over the mixture.
Let the mixture set in the fridge and enjoy!
