Apple and Nectarine Tarte Tartin

Apple and Nectarine Tarte Tartin
This sort of pie is my favorite last minute dessert. Melt butter in a pan (one with metal handles so that it can go in the oven) and add sliced fruit and a few tablespoons of brown sugar, let it bubble and go a little bit brown. Meanwhile make a simple pastry with butter, flour and ice cold water. Roll in to a roundish shape. Place the pastry over the fruit, poke a hole in the middle and bake in the oven until the pastry is golden brown. When you are ready to serve your tart, place a plate over the pan and
flipsy-flopsy the pan over....if you are lucky, it will turn out looking most impressive.
Serve with ice cream if you like!
