Well, like most of the Australian riders after the Stage 3 crashes I required an evening off last night to recuperate … But we are back tonight with the dish for Stage 3 – the Tarte de Cambrai.

This is one of those puddings that should not need a recipe.  This is one of those dishes that your nan or your mum just used to knock up, seemingly out of thin air, and deliver still warm from the oven to the dinner table.  Warm, substantial and soothingly unctuous, the Tarte de Cambrai is one dessert that will slot effortlessly into your repertoire.
