method
1. Soak the dried fruit overnight in cold water.
2. Drain, reserving 90 ml (6 tbsp) of the liquid.
3. Layer the fruit in a 1.1-litre (2-pint) pie dish with the sugar and the reserved liquid. Place a pie tunnel in the centre.
4. Roll out the pastry about 5cm (2 inches) wider than the dish. Cut a 2.5-cm (1-inch) strip from the outer edge and use to line the dampened rim of the pie dish. Dampen the pastry rim with water and cover with the pastry lid, sealing the edges well.
5. Trim and finish. Brush with egg white and dust with caster sugar.
6. Bake in the oven at 220°C (425°F) mark 7 for 25 minutes then cover with foil.
7. Reduce the oven temperature to 190°C (375°F) mark 5 and cook for a further 20 minutes.
