- Prick the pastry with a fork and bake blind for approx. 25 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
- For the cream, whisk QimiQ Classic smooth. Press the lime for the juice and grate the zest finely. Add the yogurt, sugar, lime juice and zest to the QimiQ Classic and mix well. Fold in the whipped cream.
- Pour the cream into the tart case and smooth off with a palatte knife. Spoon the melon into balls and arrange on the tart. Chill for at least 4 hours, preferably over night.
