150g sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice

The pineapple jam:

Start.making.tarts.

Sieve flour and salt into a mixing bowl. Rub in margarine or butter until crumbly and add a little water (or milk) to form a dough.
Roll pastry into 0.5cm thickness and stamp out with a cutter. Press about 0.25cm deep in the centre.
Place pastry in baking tray. Add one teaspoon of filling. I love decorating the tarts with crossing two strips of pastry on the top.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180ºC for 10 to 15 minutes or till lightly brown.

I make these alot. Just because they're pretty. :lol:
Sorry bout the bad photo.

^^ that's the best part. But I think it's because I like rich butter taste, so, I didn't add in any milk, sugar, cream or egg into the pastry part. Have fun in trying it out.

The recipe is sure very straight forward. I love the taste of milk. I will give it a try and add some powdered milk that I already have in my pantry. Your tarts look simply creative!
