1.

2.

Process biscuits and nutmeg in a food processor until crushed. Add butter. Process until combined. Press mixture firmly over base and up side of prepared tin. Place on a tray. Refrigerate while preparing filling.

3.

To make filling, sprinkle gelatine over ¼ cup water in a small heatproof bowl. Sit bowl in a pan of simmering water. Stir until gelatine is dissolved. Remove. Cool for 3 minutes.

Meanwhile, place custard in a large heatproof bowl. Microwave on High (100%) for 1 minute, or until lukewarm. Whisk gelatine into custard until combined. Refrigerate custard for 15 minutes.

5.

Beat cream and sugar in a small bowl of electric mixer until firm peaks form. Add cream to custard. Gently whisk to combine.

6.

Pour custard into biscuit crust. Refrigerate for 6 hours, or overnight until set.

7.

Heat jam in the microwave on High (100%) for 30 seconds. Strain jam.

Remove tart from tin. Transfer to a serving plate. Arrange raspberries and strawberries over custard filling. Drizzle over jam. Serve with whipped cream.
