Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Make the pastry first. Mix the butter and icing sugar together to form a paste. Add the egg, and stir until combined. Sift in the flour and mix the pastry well.
2. Roll out, then line a lightly buttered fluted flan dish. Cover with plastic cling film and leave in a cool place while preparing the custard.
3. Pour the milk into a saucepan and bring to the boil.
4. Mix the egg yolks, sugar and cocoa together. Stir in the heated milk. Return the mixture to the saucepan and stir over a low heat until it thickens.
5. Add the cream and pistachio nuts. Stir until the cream thickens again. Pour into the pastry crust and bake for 30-35 minutes. Remove from the oven. Cool.
6. Make the ganache. Heat the cream in a saucepan until boiling. Remove from the heat. Add the chocolate and stir until melted and smooth. Add the butter and stir until combined.
7. Pour over the cooled, cooked custard. Allow to set before serving.
