From left to right: before cooking, after cooking, and after cutting ;)After it's cut you can see the kiwi pieces...I didn't put enough kiwi...I only had one left :P But I could have put less "pastry" (I don't know if we can call that pastry) Before putting it into the microwave I thought the proportions were fine though...
It's really simple to do, you just cut up fruit and put it into a baking tray (I used a bowl 'cos I didn't have a suitable baking tray), then you make the pastry with butter, sugar and flour (same weight of each) and you spread it on top of the fruit. (the pastry has to be mixed by hand; coat the butter with sugar and flour so that it won't stick to your hands ;) )
Then you just shove the whole thing into the oven for 30-40 minutes (180°C, I think...but I'm not that sure :P) That's where I changed it; since I don't have an oven I put it in my microwave for 5 minutes (on high) then I left it to stand for half an hour. I got several useful hints on this page, and by comparing a few recipes using ovens or microwaves I decided to try it with a crumble. :D
The crumble doesn't look so nice because the crust isn't browned...but hey, I'll take what I can get. It smelt and tasted great though. I shall certainly try it again...with apples or strawberries!
