Corsican pine is very susceptible to red band needle blight, and is currently not recommended for planting because of the impact of this disease.

Instructions to make Corsican Pie:

  3. Preheat oven to 220C/ 430F. With your pastry you want to make a pizza size circle - about 30 cms diameter. I put one sheet on a circular pizza tray and cut up the second piece to stick around it until the tray was covered. it looks a bit messy but who cares, it will taste great!
  4. Spread the cooled filling around the pastry, leaving a 3cm/ 1 inch edge all the way around. Then dot over the goat's cheese in chunks. Next add the strips of asparagus and curl up the strips of courgette to dot about the place too.
  5. Fold up the sides over the top and pinch as you go so they stay in place. Drizzle over some evoo and refrigerate for 10 minutes
  6. Bake in the centre of the over for 30 minutes or until the pastry is golden and cooked through. Serve warm or at room temperature. Goes well with a glass of dry white wine but you may want a simple mixed tomato salad too!
