25g sugar if you want sweet pastry
Some milk or egg wash to brush the pastry strips

Some water to moisten the dates

Instructions
Method- Pastry Mix flour and salt in a bowl, rub in butter and sugar if you want it (mine was left over short pastry didn't have sugar). Mix cold water to form a stiff paste. Make it into a soft dough ,and if you want, you can put it in fridge for 15 minutes. Grease a 24 cm flan baking tin, roll out pastry and cover tin with it. Press with a fork all around the edges from inside and prick holes in the base, chill for 20 minutes (this prevents it from rising in the oven). Leave some pastry to make strips for the top.
Method- Filling Cut the pitted dates into pieces with some water in a pan and heat till they are moisten and soft, add the lemon juice (optional). Take it from heat, add the chopped almonds and leave to cool, don't leave it to much on heat. Spread the mixture in the flan tin, that you covered with pastry. Cut some pastry strips to decorate the top and create a lattice. Sprinkle some of the remaining chopped nuts in the spaces where there is no pastry. Brush the strips and all around the edges with milk or beaten egg. Bake for about 20-25 minutes on 200c or till the strips turn golden brown. Enjoy -)
