The tart filling is a simple vanilla custard, known as manjar blanco (translated to blancmange). This is made by cooking the milks, sugar and egg yolks.

Pour manjar into a cookie crumb crust and set aside while preparing the port meringue.

The port meringue is essentially an Italian style meringue where the egg whites are set by a sugar syrup. Instead of water, use port to give a purple shade and add flavour.

Beat the meringue until it is thick, glossy and stiff peaked. This can then be piped or dolloped over the manjar.
