fruity enjoyment with fine berries

For the shortcrust pastry: Make a shortcrust pastry from flour, butter, sugar, milk, and salt. Wrap in cling film and chill in the refrigerator for at least half an hour. For the filling: Cook the elderberries and blueberries in a saucepan with the lemon juice and zest, brown sugar, vanilla seeds, cinnamon, and nutmeg until soft. Mix the cornstarch with water, add to the filling, and bring to a boil while stirring. In the meantime, preheat the oven to 180°C (top/bottom heat). Roll out the shortcrust pastry and place it in a greased tart tin, pulling up the edges. Pre-bake the pastry for 5 minutes. Then spread the filling over the pastry and bake for another 35 minutes.
