Mix together Marmite™,Step 4
Grease a fluted tart tin with a little spray oil. Roll out the chilled pastry on a floured surface until 3mm thick and big enough to fit the tart tin. Trim the edges and lightly prick bottom of shell all over with a fork, chill for 10 minutes.Step 5
Preheat oven to 180°C. Line shell with foil and fill with pie weights or baking beans, then put tart pan on a large baking sheet and bake until side of tart shell is set and edge is pale golden, about 15 to 20 minutes. Carefully remove pie weights and foil and bake shell until bottom is golden, 10 to 15 minutes more.Step 6
Whisk together eggs and yolk in a large bowl until foamy, then whisk in milk, sour cream, and season to taste. Transfer fennel mixture to shell with slotted spoon, spreading evenly. Pour egg mix over the fennel into shell and bake tart until set, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool on rack 15 minutes before serving. Garnish with fennel fronds to serve.
