90g soft butter
190g soft light brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract

Preheat the oven to 180°C/ 350ºF. Grease a 25cm flan dish and set to side.
Place flour, salt, oil and milk in a large bowl and mix to form a dough.
Turn dough out onto a floured work surface and roll out.
Roll dough over flan dish to ensure it covers sides (do not trim sides yet). Place dish into freezer.
Place syrup, butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over a low heat until melted, add vanilla and stir well. Take off heat and let it stand for 10mins until slighty cooled.
Take the pastry-lined flan dish out of the freezer, and arrange the pecans on base of dish.
Add whisked eggs to syrup mixture and pour into flan dish. Trim pastry on sides of flan dish.
Bake in the oven for 40 minutes, or until the filling has set and the pastry is golden.
