8. Remove pumpkin from the oven and reduce temperature to 180 degrees.

10. Slice and serve with fresh cracked pepper and a drizzle of lemon juice... Enjoy!
NOTE
Puff Pastry is a quick and easy option but this recipe also tastes and looks great using the Basic Cook Book Short Crust Pastry for your Tart Shell. If you have 10 minutes to spare i reccomend trying a short crust pastry shell to take this tart to another level.
You can also make your own Ricotta Cheese to use with this Tart.
Tip
Serve with Oven baked sweet potato wedges and/or Basic Cook Book Beetroot Salad!

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Loved it! Easy to follow instructions. This is a great meat free dish I will be cooking again. I sprinkled some feta and Parmesan on top as which worked well too. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
