Instructions:
1. Prepare the Tart Crust:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a bowl, mix flour and sugar. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add egg yolk and cold water, mixing until the dough comes together. Wrap in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.
Roll out the dough and press into a tart pan. Prick the base with a fork and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden. Cool completely.
2. Prepare the Glaze:
In a saucepan, combine strawberry jam, sugar, cornstarch, and water. Cook over medium heat until thickened and smooth. Let it cool.
3. Assemble the Tart:
Arrange the halved strawberries over the cooled crust. Brush the glaze over the strawberries for a shiny finish.
4. Decorate:
Pipe fresh whipped cream around the edges and add sliced strawberries in the center for a decorative touch.
5. Serve:
Chill for 1 hour before serving to set the glaze. Enjoy!
