125 g Sugar (~5 tbsp)
15 g Starch (1 tbsp)
INSTRUCTIONS
Sift the flour twice in a large bowl. Add sugar and a pinch of salt to the flour, mix. Cut very cold butter into small cubes (it would be even better to hold it for a couple of hours in the freezer). Put the butter into the flour; quickly grind into crumbs. Add water, quickly kneading the dough. Roll the dough into a ball. Wrap in cling film, chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Bring the milk to a boil. Put 2 yolks, sugar, half a bag of vanilla sugar in a bowl, mix well. Sift the starch into the custard, mix the custard cream with a whisk. Add one ladle of hot milk, stir with a whisk until smooth.
Pour the milk into the mixture of yolks with sugar, stirring with a spatula, put on a slow fire, cook, continually stirring until thickened (1-2 minutes).
Wash the cherries, cut the berries in half, and remove the cherrystones. Sprinkle cherries with 2-3 tablespoons of sugar sprinkle with starch through a strainer. Gently mix the cherries with a spoon, leave for 10-15 minutes. Put the berries into a colander, leave to drain.
Put the dough on a sheet of baking paper sprinkled with flour; tenderize the dough with a rolling pin. Roll the dough to a thickness of about 7 mm in the center and slightly thinner to the edges. Put the custard cream on the dough, leaving about 5-6 cm from the edges, put the cherries on the cream. Sprinkle the cherries with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Lift the edge of the paper and gently close the galette. Bake the galette for about 45-50 minutes at 180C. Leave to cool completely, garnish with mint.
