- Press the dough in a tart pan and prick it with a fork to let the steam escape and prevent bubbles from forming under the crust.
- Once the tart is in the oven, saute the dried longan, red beans, cinnamon, orange juice and salt.
- After 10 minutes, pour everything on the tart, leaving half for the top layer, then bake it for another 20 minutes at 180 °C.
- For the last layer, mix the cream cheese with the grated lemon zest and put it on top.
- Garnish with breadcrumbs and dried longan.
- Decorate the plate with mixed fruits and edible flowers.
