ROASTED TOMATO AND BRIE TART



Roasted Tomato and Brie Tart image

These roasted tomato and brie tarts have all the buttery, flaky crunch of croissants, but take a fraction of the effort, thanks to this simple recipe. They get additional richness from crème fraîche in the dough.

Provided by Naomi Pomeroy

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus additional for rolling
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons salt, plus additional for the half-dried tomatoes
1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks), cold, cut into tablespoon-size pieces
1 cup crème fraîche, cold; may substitute sour cream
1 tablespoon olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon heavy cream
8 ounces brie
1 pint grape tomatoes, to make Half-Dried Tomatoes; see step 1 for directions
Thyme, for garnish

Steps:

  • Put flour, baking powder, and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse a few times to combine. Add cold butter, and pulse a few more times until it looks like a rustic cornmeal. Add the cold crème fraîche, and pulse a few times until the dough just comes together. Turn the dough out into a mixing bowl. Using your hands, work the dough a little bit more to fully incorporate-it should look "shaggy." Place it on a big sheet of plastic wrap, gather the sides up and press the dough into a ball; flatten slightly and chill in the fridge, at least 1 hour and up to 24. (This is a good time to make the half-dried tomatoes you'll need in Step 4: Halve grape tomatoes, toss with salt, pepper, and olive oil, and bake for 1 hour at 300 degrees F.)
  • Unwrap the dough and place on a generously floured, clean work surface; flour the dough thoroughly. Whack the dough with a rolling pin a few times to soften it. Starting in the middle, roll dough out to either side to make an even rectangle. Fold the dough in thirds, like a letter. Roll it out again and repeat the folding, add more flour if the dough sticks. This time, rotate the rectangle of dough by 90 degrees before rolling it out and folding again. Roll it out one more time, in the direction of the folds, and fold in thirds. When the laminating is done, roll the dough into a square, starting in the middle of the dough and rolling toward yourself, then away. The square should be roughly 10 inches by 10 inches and ¼-inch thick. Trim the edges of the dough, then cut it into 2½-inch-wide strips. Place the strips on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 15 minutes, so the dough keeps its shape as it bakes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Make an egg wash by whisking together the egg yolk and heavy cream. Brush the tarts with the egg wash and parbake, 15-20 minutes. When the tarts are puffy and light brown, remove from the oven and prick all over with a fork; then return to the oven for 10 more minutes.
  • When the tarts are puffy and golden brown, remove from oven and top with sliced Brie and Half-Dried Tomatoes. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese has just melted, 1-2 minutes. Garnish with thyme and serve family-style.

SLOW-ROASTED TOMATO & GRUYèRE TART



Slow-roasted tomato & gruyère tart image

Slow-roasting tomatoes will intensify their flavour and sweetness. Serve warm for best results

Provided by Mary Cadogan

Categories     Lunch, Main course

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 12

200g plain flour , plus extra for dusting
100g butter , cut into small pieces
50g grated gruyère (or vegetarian alternative)
500g smallish vine tomatoes , halved
1 tbsp olive oil
handful basil leaves , torn
3 tbsp pesto (choose a vegetarian one)
2 eggs
150ml single cream
150ml milk
100g grated gruyère (or vegetarian alternative)
handful black olives

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 1. Arrange the tomatoes over a baking sheet, cut-sides up. Brush lightly with oil and put a little basil on top of each. Bake for 1½ hrs until tomatoes are semi-dried. Remove from the oven and increase the heat to 190C/170C fan/gas 5.
  • To make the pastry, tip the flour into a food processor with the butter and whizz until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add cheese and 2-3 tbsp cold water and pulse until the dough comes together. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and briefly knead.
  • Roll out the pastry and line a 25cm flan tin, there's no need to trim off the excess at this stage. Line the pastry with greaseproof paper and fill with baking beans. Bake for 15 mins, then remove the paper and beans and continue cooking until crisp and light golden. Using a small, sharp knife, carefully trim off excess pastry.
  • Spread the pesto over the base of the pastry case. Lightly whisk the eggs, then whisk in the cream and milk. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in the grated cheese. Pour into the pastry case and arrange the tomatoes over the top, cut-sides up. Scatter with olives and bake for 25-30 mins until puffed and golden, then leave to cool slightly before serving.

ROASTED-TOMATO TART



Roasted-Tomato Tart image

Provided by Melissa Roberts-Matar

Yield Makes 6 hors d'oeuvre or side-dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 sheet frozen puff pastry (from a 17 1/4-oz package), thawed
2 lb plum tomatoes (8 large), halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano shavings plus additional for garnish (1 1/4 oz; from a 6- to 8-oz piece)

Steps:

  • Put oven racks in middle and lower third of oven and preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large shallow baking pan with foil.
  • Roll out pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into an 11-inch square (1/8 inch thick). Using a plate or pot lid as a guide, cut out a 10-inch round.
  • Carefully transfer round to an ungreased baking sheet by rolling pastry around rolling pin and then unrolling onto baking sheet. Chill round on baking sheet until ready to use.
  • Toss tomatoes with 2 tablespoons oil, 2 teaspoons thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl until well coated. Roast tomatoes, cut sides up and in 1 layer, in foil-lined baking pan in middle of oven, 1 hour.
  • Brush pastry round with 2 teaspoons oil, then sprinkle with 1 teaspoon thyme. After roasting tomatoes 1 hour, move tomatoes in pan to lower third of oven and put pastry on baking sheet on middle rack. Bake pastry and tomatoes until pastry is golden brown and edges of tomatoes are slightly browned but still appear juicy, about 15 minutes.
  • While pastry is still warm, scatter 1/2 cup cheese shavings evenly over it. Top shavings with warm tomatoes, cut sides down and in 1 layer, then sprinkle evenly with remaining 1/2 teaspoon thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper to taste, and additional cheese shavings if desired.

ROASTED TOMATO TART WITH RICOTTA AND PESTO



Roasted Tomato Tart With Ricotta and Pesto image

Save those wider-than-tall, about-to-burst tomatoes for slicing and showering with flaky sea salt. For this recipe, you want smaller, sturdier varieties like kumato, Campari or petite heirlooms. Brushing the uncooked puff pastry with crème fraîche adds a subtle tanginess that you won't necessarily notice, but the tomatoes will taste better for it. You might be tempted to skip salting your tomatoes, but don't: It helps prevent a soggy crust while intensifying the flavor of your tomatoes. This tart is best enjoyed straight out of the oven, at its flaky prime, but it's also great at room temperature, or even cold, devoured directly from the fridge.

Categories     brunch, dinner, lunch, weekday, pastries, pies and tarts, vegetables, appetizer, main course, side dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 small, multicolored tomatoes, such as heirloom, kumato or Campari (about 12 ounces total), sliced crosswise 1/4-inch thick
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 sheet packaged puff pastry, thawed (about 7 ounces)
3 tablespoons crème fraîche or sour cream
1/4 small red onion, very thinly sliced
Aleppo pepper or red-pepper flakes, for garnish (optional)
3/4 cup fresh ricotta
Store-bought or homemade pesto, for drizzling
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Fresh basil leaves, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Line a large baking sheet with paper towels. Set the sliced tomatoes on top in a single layer. In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Use it to season the tomatoes evenly on both sides, cover with another paper towel and let sit, 15 minutes, allowing the salt to draw moisture out of the tomatoes.
  • As the tomatoes sit, heat the oven to 400 degrees and set a rack in the middle of the oven. Working on a large sheet of parchment paper, roll out the puff pastry into a 9-by-11-inch rectangle, trimming any uneven edges. Prick the inside with a fork every few inches, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Using a pastry brush, coat the center of the puff pastry with the crème fraîche, leaving the border unbrushed.
  • Working within the border, layer the tomatoes and red onion on top of the tart, allowing them to overlap slightly. Transfer to a sheet pan and bake, rotating halfway through, until puff pastry is browned and puffed, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Sprinkle tomatoes with Aleppo pepper, if using. Dollop with fresh ricotta. Thin pesto with olive oil until it reaches the proper consistency for drizzling; drizzle on top of tart to taste. Top with basil, if using, and serve warm or at room temperature.

CHEESE, HERB & TOMATO TART



Cheese, Herb & Tomato Tart image

I made this to take to a dinner party. Not only is it easy, it is super yummy and beautiful! Using a tart pan with removable sides make for a nicer presentation. Combing the two cheeses works best, but you can use one or the other. Don't be tempted to add more cheese than suggested, it will be too thick with cheese and changes the outcome, IMO.

TOMATO TARTS WITH ROASTED GARLIC & GOAT'S CHEESE



Tomato tarts with roasted garlic & goat's cheese image

Use up cherry tomatoes in these little puff pastry tartlets - get ahead by roasting the three whole garlic bulbs the night before

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Canapes, Starter

Time 1h22m

Yield Makes 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 whole garlic bulbs
2 tbsp olive oil
375g block all-butter puff pastry
1 ½ tbsp honey Dijon mustard (we used Maille) or use 2 tsp Dijon mustard and a squeeze of honey
325g cherry tomato , halved
1 egg , beaten
150g pack soft goat's cheese (we used Chavroux - other soft goat's cheese would work but mix with a little milk to loosen)
handful basil leaves

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Slice the tops off the garlic bulbs and sit on a sheet of foil. Drizzle over 1 tbsp of the oil, season and wrap into a parcel. Roast for 50 mins or until soft, then leave to cool - this can be done the day before.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the pastry into quarters. Roll out each piece and cut into a 14cm-diameter circle. Use a saucer as a guide if you don't have a cutter. Pop the circles on a baking tray and score a 1cm border around the edge of each, being careful not to cut all the way through. Avoiding the border, prick the pastry all over with a fork, then chill.
  • Increase oven to 200C/180 fan/gas 6. When the garlic is cool enough to handle, squeeze the flesh from the bulbs into a bowl. Add the mustard, remaining oil and some seasoning, and use a fork to mash to a paste. Spread this over the pastry, leaving the border clear, then top with the tomato halves, skin-side down, and season well.
  • Brush the edges of the pastry with egg, crumble over the goat's cheese and bake for 25-30 mins until the pastry is golden and crisp, and the tomatoes are starting to shrivel. Remove from the tray and allow to cool to room temperature. Scatter over the basil before serving.
