Instructions
Pastry
Pulse flour, butter and icing sugar in a food processor to coarse breadcrumbs. Add yolk and water, pulse to a ball. Wrap, refrigerate 1 hour.
Roll to 3mm. Line a 24cm fluted tin. Refrigerate 20 minutes.
Bake blind at 180°C fan-forced for 18 minutes lined with weights, then 8 minutes uncovered (egg-wash the base before the second bake). Cool fully.
Candied wheels
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Blanch the blood orange slices for 1 minute. Drain. Blanch again in fresh boiling water for 1 minute. Drain.
Combine sugar and 250ml water in a wide pan. Bring to a simmer. Slip in the orange slices in a single layer. Simmer gently for 30 minutes.
Lift out the slices with a slotted spoon onto a rack. Reserve the syrup. Cool slices completely.
Curd & finish
Combine zests, strained juices, sugar, eggs and yolk in a heatproof bowl over simmering water. Whisk constantly for 8 to 10 minutes until thickened.
Off the heat, whisk in the cold butter cubes one at a time until smooth. Strain through a fine sieve.
Pour warm curd into the cooled shell. Smooth the top. Refrigerate at least 2 hours, ideally overnight.
Arrange the candied wheels in overlapping concentric circles on the set tart. Brush with warmed reserved syrup. Refrigerate 30 minutes to set the glaze.
