  3. Cut strawberries in half , add sugar ,orange zest and corn starch and mix. Roll out pastry 4-5mm thick on a lightly floured surface smooth out any creases.

(Chill dough in the freezer for a few minutes if it becomes too soft to work with.)

Really fabulous - I opted for some Meyer lemon zest and a little squeeze of juice. After letting it sit for about an hour, it had perfectly held its shape and the dough was crisp on the edges with a perfect bottom (I was worried that it would be soppy, but no problems there). Topped with some vanilla bean gelato and an espresso, this was absolutely the perfect way to end an evening, and I suspect it will be even better to start the day tomorrow.
