Heat 2 cartons of milk in a pan and stir to prevent burning.

Once boiling, add 2-3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to curdle the milk.

Let it boil for a few seconds after adding vinegar, then turn off the heat and let it sit for a couple of minutes.

Strain the curds using a wet cotton cloth over a sieve to separate from the whey.

Prepare the pastry by mixing flour, salt, and fat, then add 1 tablespoon of sugar.

Bring the pastry dough together without resting it.

Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F).

Roll out the pastry and line a 9-inch loose bottom tin.

Blind bake the pastry before adding the filling.
