Potato and Brie Flaky Pastry Tart
Simple to make, this is delicious served warm with a salad or cold as a snack.
Serves 2
Ingredients
- 150g Brie, or a soft cheese or goat’s cheese
- 1 block from a 680g pack of frozen puff pastry, defrosted
- 6 small salad or new potatoes
- 6 medium mushrooms
- 1 small red onion
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1½ tbsp white wine vinegar
Method
- Set your oven to 180C or gas 4. Cut the potatoes into 1cm square chunks, and simmer in salted water until cooked, drain.
- Roll out the pastry to a square 30 x 30cm, and place on a floured baking sheet. Next slice the onion and mushrooms. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan, and gently sauté the onion, mushrooms and the cooked potato for a few minutes until the onions soften.
- Add the white wine vinegar and allow to reduce in volume slightly. (This will also de-glaze your pan.) Season with salt and pepper.
- Scatter all these things over your puff pastry square and arrange them evenly, leaving a 2cm border. Tear up the cheese and arrange on the veggies.
- Bake for about 30-40 mins or until golden brown and bubbly.
