Recipe for Pumpkin Flan with Coconut Milk and Spices

Let's start with the shortcrust pastry, preheat the oven to 180°C.

In a mixing bowl, add the flour and softened butter cut into cubes. Knead.

Add the spoonful of oil, as well as the water. Knead until all the ingredients are well combined.

If the dough is too sticky, add a little flour.

Butter and flour the mold of your choice (ideally square or rectangular).

Roll out the dough in the mold, making sure to press it well against the sides. If you have time, let the dough rest in the refrigerator for about twenty minutes; this will help prevent the edges from collapsing during baking.

Put the dish in the oven to pre-bake the crust: this will prevent the crust from becoming soft or not cooking properly due to the filling. About ten minutes. After this pre-baking, if the edges have dropped, don't hesitate to lift them up.

Now prepare the mashed potatoes.

To finish, blend all the ingredients together.
