Best 8 Potato And Radicchio Tart Recipes

POTATO AND CARAMELIZED ONION TART

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Prepare the pie crust according to package instructions. Flatten into a disk and chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
• In a large saute pan over medium heat, heat the canola oil. Add the onions and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are dark golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• In the meantime, using the slicing blade attachment of a food processor, or with a box grater, slice half the potato into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Place in cold water to avoid browning. (Reserve the remaining half of potato for another use, such as Round 2 Recipe Open Faced Roast Pork and Onion Sandwich.)
• In a small bowl, stir together the cream cheese, Italian seasoning, mustard and season with salt and pepper.
• Remove the pie crust from the fridge and roll into a 12-inch round about 1/4-inch thick. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread the cream cheese mixture in an even layer over the pie crust, making sure to leave a 1-inch border around the edge.
• Dry the potatoes thoroughly and place an even layer on top of the cream cheese, overlapping slightly to fit and keeping 1/2-inch from the edge of the cream cheese. Over the top of the potatoes place an even layer of caramelized onions. (Reserve 1/2 cup of the onions for another use, such as Round 2 Recipe Open Faced Roast Pork and Onion Sandwich.) Fold over the edges of the crust to create a 1-inch-wide border around the tart filling.
• Bake until the crust is golden and the potatoes are cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before slicing.

CARAMELIZED ONION POTATO TART

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Set a large skillet over medium heat and add 4 tablespoons of olive oil. Add sliced onions and cook over medium heat for 10 to 12 minutes until they are tender and brown all over.
• Using a mandolin (or sharp knife), finely slice the potatoes into rounds (you can place them in a bowl with a wet towel over the top to stop them from going brown while you work). Place the potatoes into a bowl and season with salt and pepper. When ready, add the onions and toss to combine without breaking potatoes.
• Add about 1 tablespoon water to the same pan the onions were cooked in and allow it to come to a bubble. Using layered paper towels, wipe the pan clean.
• Add some extra-virgin olive oil to the pan and add the potatoes to the pan, making sure the potatoes are flat. Top with the diced butter.
• Take a piece of parchment paper and fold in half. Find the middle of the parchment along the crease and hold in place with your finger. Taking the right side of the parchment, pull it towards the center and fold it straight down to create a diagonal edge. Fold the parchment in half to create a triangle. Place the pointed edge in the middle of the saute pan on top of the potatoes to find its radius. Make a marker of where the pan edge ends (or starts). At this point you can cut the parchment at this marker and open to reveal a circle.
• Cover the potatoes with the parchment paper and press down. Drizzle some extra-virgin olive oil over the top so it down burn and rub it in.
• Place the pan into the oven on the top rack and bake for about 45 minutes.
• When done remove from oven and run a knife around the edge to separate from the pan. Place a large plate on top of the saute pan and flip. Remove the saute pan. Allow to cool slightly before cutting into slices.

POTATO-AND-RADICCHIO TART

Steps:

• After the dough has rested in the fridge for at least an hour, and up to 12 hours, preheat the oven to 350. Roll dough into a 12-inch circle, dusting with flour underneath and on top, as needed. Use a knife to trim the rough outer edge of the circle, cutting away as little dough as possible. Place the disc on a sheet of parchment paper, on a half-sheet pan. Use a small palette knife or spoon to spread the ricotta across the dough almost all the way to the edge, and scatter the provolone and lemon zest on top. Season lightly with salt and pepper. (If the dough is warm, return it to the fridge while you prepare the potatoes.)
• Use your hands to roughly break apart the potatoes, so they're about halved, with jagged edges. In a large bowl, mix the potato pieces with olive oil, shallots, salt and pepper. Scatter the potato-shallot mixture all over the dough, and set the bowl aside (you'll use it to dress the radicchio). Fold an inch at the edge of the dough inward, pressing it over the potato mixture, working your way around the whole tart. Brush the dough with egg wash, and bake for 45 minutes, or until the edge as well as the bottom are light brown and crisp.
• Grip the parchment paper, and slide the tart onto a cooling rack, then cover it with grated Parmigiano. When the tart is no longer hot to the touch, dress radicchio leaves using the same bowl you used for the potatoes, still slick with olive oil, adding another drizzle if needed and a splash of white-wine vinegar so the leaves are just barely coated and glistening. Arrange the leaves on top of the cooled tart, season lightly with salt and serve.

DINNER SALAD WITH RADICCHIO AND ROASTED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• For the spicy cashew dressing:
• Blend cashews, oil, vinegar, red pepper flakes, fish sauce, honey, garlic, and 1/3 cup warm water in a blender until very creamy, smooth, and pourable. Taste dressing and season with salt.
• Do Ahead: Dressing can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill.
• For the salad:
• Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 425°F. Place sweet potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with oil, and season with kosher salt; turn to coat. Arrange cut side down; roast until tender and cut sides are browned, 20-25 minutes. Let cool.
• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Carefully lower eggs into water and cook 8 minutes. Transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water and let cool. Remove eggs from ice water, pat dry, and peel.
• Toss radicchio, fennel, and vinegar in a large bowl; season with sea salt. Drizzle 1/2 cup dressing down sides of bowl. Using your hands, fold salad, working from the bottom out toward the sides of the bowl, until evenly coated in dressing.
• Transfer salad to a platter. Tear sweet potatoes and eggs into 1 1/2" pieces and nestle into salad. Season egg yolks with sea salt. Drizzle more dressing over and top with cashews and cilantro. Serve with remaining dressing alongside.

TART CRUST

Steps:

• Put the flour, sugar and salt into the bowl of a food processor, and pulse once or twice to mix. Add the butter, and pulse twice more, so it's still in very large pieces. Steadily pour the ice water into the machine while pulsing it as quickly as you can, until the butter is still visible in large smears and the dough is pushing up the sides of the bowl and looks like damp bread crumbs (you may not need to add all the water).
• Scrape the dough crumbs into a bowl, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. (The dough will continue to hydrate, but if it still feels powdery and dry, wet your fingertips and flick a little cold water onto the crumbs.) After 1 hour, divide the dough into two even balls, gently squashing each into a disc, and wrap each in plastic wrap. Put one in the fridge, to roll out for the potato-and-radicchio tart, and put the other in the freezer so that you have dough ready to go for another tart.

POTATO TART WITH ZUCCHINI AND RADICCHIO

Steps:

• Start by cutting the zucchini into thin slices. Warm some olive oil in a pan and add a cracked clove of garlic (so that you can take it out once the zucchini is cooked). When the garlic has browned a little add the zucchini slices, cover the pan and stew them and add salt. Add water if needed.
• Cut the radicchio into thin stripes and follow the same procedure as to stew the zucchini, adding together with the garlic two leaves of sage. Do not let burn, the radicchio takes a short time to stew.
• Meanwhile (I usually do this when starting stewing the zucchini), peel the potatoes and boil them in salt water until they're tender. Strain and smash them - make sure there are no big lumps.
• Add the stewed zucchini and chicory to the mashed potatoes, together with some olive oil, black pepper and some salt if needed, then mix all the ingredients together.
• Cover the bottom of a baking pan with oil and sprinkle cornmeal on it. Pour the mixture in the baking pan and level the surface, pour some oil on it.
• Put the baking pan in pre-heated oven at about 430°F and cook for about 20 minutes.
• Serve warm - wait some minutes after taking it out of the oven.

INDIVIDUAL POTATO-AND-ONION TARTES TATIN

Steps:

• Very generously butter six 5-inch round metal pie plates; set aside. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out puff pastry to a scant 1/4-inch thickness. Using a cutter or a small plate as a guide, cut dough into 4 1/2-inch rounds. Prick rounds all over with a fork. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet; chill until firm, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Lay two or three onion rounds on the bottom of each pie pan. Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice potatoes into thin rounds, about a scant 1/4 inch thick. Place potato slices, slightly overlapping, over the onion in two layers of concentric circles (they should completely cover the onion). Sprinkle potatoes generously with salt and pepper. Place chilled puff pastry rounds on top of the potatoes in each pie plate. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Immediately invert tartlets onto a platter. In a small saucepan, combine balsamic vinegar and sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook until mixture reduces to a syrup, about 4 minutes. Whisk in butter, a piece at a time, until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Glaze tartlets with balsamic syrup and serve warm.

POLENTA TARAGNA WITH TALEGGIO AND RADICCHIO

Steps:

• Whisk polenta and buckwheat flour together in a bowl.
• Combine water, broth, and salt in a large pot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Sprinkle polenta mixture into the water little by little, whisking constantly to avoid clumping. Immediately reduce heat and simmer, stirring often to avoid scorching, for about 15 minutes.
• Set aside 4 Taleggio cheese cubes. Add butter and remaining Taleggio cheese to the polenta, stirring often until melted and the polenta is thick and creamy like grits, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Remove the outer leaves of the radicchio and cut the head into 4 equal wedges. Drizzle oil onto the griddle and cook the radicchio on each side until heated and slightly charred and just beginning to wilt.
• Distribute equal portions of polenta onto plates and top with a cube of Taleggio and a wedge of grilled radicchio. Serve immediately.
