I am intending to make this for a dinner party this evening and need help with the pastry.Most of the recipes say to use a good quality puff pasty otherwise I will make one.Can anyone please suggest a brand of bought pastry or a recipe of a yummy home-made one? Thankyou.

I buy Edmonds pastry, always good. Put a LOT of apple in your tart, they do shrink quite a bit on cooking. Good luck, It's easy and delicious.

Butter puff pastry, not the cheaper one made with other fats.

You need butter pastry. Don't forget to get just the right apples - so important! I like fairly sour ones as they contrast with the sweetness of everything else.

Reporting back and I am happy to say it was a success.I used the Edmonds Puff Pastry and Gala apples,it was really yummy.Next time I will perfect it and arrange my apple slices a little neater,but the taste of the caramel,apples and pastry combo was just divine.I also need to buy a proper pan that can be used both stove top and in the oven,it was a little tricky transferring the caramel into another dish,then placing the apples followed by the pastry on top.Thanks for your help.
