Cooking

step-0
What will inspire people in the morning to bake something? Me personally - camping in your garden and there's a "harvest"! We have that week is incredible heat and my poor roses wither, unable to open! But mint and Basil is in order. Great start to the day!
step-1
125 g flour mix with almond flour, Sahara, vanilla sugar, salt and butter cut into pieces.
step-2
Add the egg and knead the dough. The dough is sticky, you can add a tablespoon of flour, if it is absolutely unbearable, but no more. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1 hour.
step-3
Meanwhile, prepare Basil sugar. To do this, pour into a mortar with two tablespoons of brown sugar and prepare (wash and dry) Basil leaves.
step-4
RUB the sugar with the Basil. It turns out that such a mass of greenish color, with extraordinary aroma. If the sugar is very moist, it must be dried for a minute in an open oven at a medium temperature (100 degrees). But I have a mixture such as need and nothing work it was not necessary.
step-5
Chilled dough, remove from refrigerator and spread it in the baking dish, making bumpers. The dough is sticky, so your fingers from time to time dip into the flour. The dough thickly prick with a fork. My shape is round with a diameter of 25 cm, sorry, I have no square shape 22X22 cm, it seems to me that her cake would look even more interesting. So happy owners of square shape suggest to use it.
step-6
Cover body of the cake with baking paper, pour on top of beans and bake at temperature 180 degrees for about 10 minutes. Then remove the paper and beans and bake another five minutes.
step-7
Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Mix ricotta or cottage cheese with sour cream, add the egg, icing sugar, zest and juice of half a lime. Mix well, add corn starch, mix well. At this stage, try sugar. Pay attention to the consistency, I might add sour cream (cottage cheese is in fact different).
step-8
Remove the form with the case from the oven and pour the cream.
step-9
From apricots to remove the stones, cut the apricots into halves and spread cream cut down. Lubricate the warmed apricot jam, sprinkle with Basil sugar pie. Put the pie back in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes.
step-10
The finished cake to cool in the form and then gently shift to the dish.
step-11
That's all. It is possible to enjoy.
step-12
Bon appetit!
