800g reduced-fat Greek-style yoghurt
1 ½ sheets reduced-fat shortcrust pastry, just thawed
2 eggs, lightly beaten
⅓ cup honey
2 teaspoons zest of orange
2 oranges, peeled, thinly sliced

Instructions

1 Spoon yoghurt into a fine sieve placed over a medium bowl, cover and refrigerate overnight. Discard strained liquid.

2 Heat oven to 160°C. Line a 2.5cm-deep, rectangular (11.5cm x 34cm) loose-based tart tin with pastry sheets, trimming to fit. Put tin in freezer for 20 minutes, or until pastry is frozen.

3 Place tart tin on a baking tray and bake for 20 minutes, or until pastry is light golden. Transfer tin to a wire rack, leaving pastry to cool completely.

4 Meanwhile, place yoghurt in a large bowl and whisk in eggs, honey and orange zest until combined. Spoon mixture into cooled pastry case and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until filling is just set and light golden. Leave tart to cool, then refrigerate until chilled.
