Method
1. Preheat the oven to 160 °C.

3. For the filling, arrange the butternut on the base. Heat the butter in a heavy-based saucepan and add the onion. Sauté until translucent. Spoon onion over butternut layer. Spread the feta blocks over the butternut-and-onion mixture, followed by the basil.
4. Beat the eggs, milk, sour cream and lemon juice together. Add the parmesan, mustard, salt and pepper. Pour mixture over the tart.
5. Bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown and set.
