This tart was first cooked for me by Canan, whom I met in the summer of 92 in Bodrum. Canan comes from one of those families who was totally inspired by great Turkish food and a deep love of cooking as well as sourcing the perfect ingredients. Her mother and father were both inspirational in the kitchen and Canan was just incredible to watch. Never one for recipes, everything was in her head and she could create a meal at the speed of light. And it all tasted simply wonderful.

The first time that she told me that she would whip up a Jam Tart for me, I was not overly excited. It sounded rather boring and nothing close to an inspiring Turkish dish. Perhaps what you expect the Country Womens Association to display such a cake on a stand at the local fęte or a backwater village Bake-Off.

But actually there is a reason for such tarts to still be around, decades after they were first thought up. Once you have tasted this one, you will really be questioning why you havent come across it before. It never fails to get people coming back for seconds. And asking for the recipe.
It is a truly quick recipe to whip together and never fails to impress.

I do hope you will enjoy it. It is very simple to make and deserves a more interesting name.
Perhaps you can come up with one?
Afiyet olsun !
