Indulge in the world of Belgian pastries with this delightful Flemish apple pie! A tender crust, fragrant apple filling with citrus notes, and silky custard infused with ginger and nutmeg create a perfect harmony of flavors and textures. This pie will be the star of any tea party and will adorn your festive table, offering unforgettable moments of pure delight.

Begin by preparing the dough. Sift the flour with salt into a spacious bowl. Add the softened butter, sugar, egg, and fragrant lemon zest. Pour in 2-3 tablespoons of ice water and thoroughly knead the dough. Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic film, and place it in the refrigerator for 1 hour to rest and become more pliable.

While the dough is chilling, prepare the cream. In a heatproof bowl, combine the milk, cream, butter, sugar, vanilla sugar, a pinch of salt, egg, egg yolks, starch, ground ginger, and nutmeg. Place the bowl over a double boiler and, stirring vigorously and continuously, bring the mixture to a boil. Remove from heat and allow the cream to cool slightly.

Prepare the apples for the filling. Peel them, cut each into four pieces, and carefully remove the core.

Transfer the sliced apples to a bowl, sprinkle them with fresh lemon zest, and gently mix to ensure the zest is evenly distributed.

On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a circle. Its diameter should be approximately 4 cm larger than the diameter of your baking pan. Grease the pan with butter and line it with parchment paper. Carefully place the dough into the pan, forming high edges.

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Arrange the apple slices on the dough in a circle, convex side up, creating an attractive pattern. Then, pour the prepared cream evenly over them. Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes, until it turns an appetizing golden brown.

In just half an hour, you can prepare delicious shrimp in a creamy sauce. You'll need cream for this. It's best to choose a higher fat content. Cream with a higher percentage of fat has a more pronounced creamy taste and makes the sauce thicker. The finished shrimp can be served either with or without a side dish. Either way, it will be delicious.
