Pastel de nata

Pastel de nata (Portuguese pronunciation: [pɐʃˈtɛl dɨ ˈnatɐ]}} (plural: pastéis de nata; [pɐʃˈtɐjʒ dɨ-])) is a Portuguese egg custard tart pastry, optionally dusted with cinnamon. Outside Portugal, they are particularly popular in other parts of Western Europe, Asia and former Portuguese colonies, such as Brazil, Mozambique, Macau, Goa and East Timor. The Macanese pastel de nata has been adopted by KFC and is available in regions such as Hong Kong, Taiwan and China. In Indonesia, this pastry is especially popular in Kampung Tugu, Jakarta, a culturally Portuguese (Mardijker) enclave.
