SIMPLE SAVOURY TART



SIMPLE SAVOURY TART
Tart filling:
Table spoon of olive oil
2 medium white onions
450 g rosa tomatoes
350 g mushrooms (I used portebellini but any will do)
half teaspoon of each of these (dry herbs: mixed herbs & sweet basil, cracked black pepper and salt)
Other:
400 g ready to use puff pastry (thawed)
Olive Oil Spray and Cook
100 g mozzarella cheese
180 g boerenkaas cheese
Braise onions in olive oil until golden brown add rosa tomatoes for 5 minutes until skin crack, but keep shape of tomatoes. Add dry herbs, salt and pepper and stir in with onions and tomatoes then add mushrooms for 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Roll out the pastry into any shape you desire. I used a round tart ceramic bowl which I lined out with foil. Coat with spray and Cook and line out tart pan out with the pastry.
Grate mozzarella and lay it evenly over the pastry. I like this because it adds extra flavour and creates a barrier between pastry and filling.
Evenly lay the tart filling over the mozzarella cheese.
Grate the boerenkaas and arrange over the filling.
Put in a pre-heated oven on 180 degrees C for 20-25 minutes / until visible pastry on the side is golden brown.
Put oven on grill for 2 minutes just to get the cheese on top of tart is golden. I kept this one in for a minute too long but 2 mins should do.
