6 Large Eggs

Mix together all the ingredients, adding the cream last.
In a sauce pan over medium heat start cooking the mixture, stirring continuously with a spatula getting into the corners and the middle of the pan - DO NOT WALK AWAY AND LEAVE IT. Keep stirring until JUST beginning to thicken then strain through a sieve into the pre baked tart case.
Place in the oven at 150C and finish cooking until set - check after 8 - 10 mins

If you prefer the mixture can be poured directly into the tart base without the precooking in the pan and baked at 150C until set - about 20 - 25 minutes
