Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups/250 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more for seasoning tomatoes
1/4 cup/59 milliliters extra-virgin oil, plus 2 tablespoons and a little more to grease the pan
1 egg, beaten
1 large garlic clove, grated
1 cup thinly sliced onion
2 large tomatoes, sliced 1/4-inch thick and blotted
Ground black pepper
1/2 pound fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
A few pitted niçoise olives, optional
A few capers, optional
8 anchovy fillets, rinsed and patted dry

Steps:

  • Make the dough: Put flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a mixing bowl. Drizzle in 1/4 cup oil, egg and 1/4 cup cold water, then mix quickly with hands to make a soft dough. If dough seems dry, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Form dough into a rough rectangle, wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a flour-dusted surface, divide dough in half. Roll out one piece to a rectangle approximately 9 by 12 inches (reserve other piece for future use, or to make a second tart).
  • Stir 2 tablespoons olive oil and the garlic together in a small bowl. Put rolled dough on lightly greased baking sheet. Drizzle surface of dough with garlic oil. Scatter onion slices over dough. Arrange tomato slices over dough in one layer without crowding, then season with salt and pepper. Top tomatoes with torn mozzarella slices in one layer. Tuck olives and capers here and there, if using. Drape top of tart with intermittently placed anchovy fillets.
  • Bake for 6 minutes on bottom shelf of oven, then transfer to top shelf and bake for another 6 minutes or until nicely browned. Let cool slightly, then cut into squares. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Onion Tart With Leeks, Capers and Anchovy image

Though this tart may seem complicated, it's actually rather simple to put together. Once you make the savory onion mixture, all that's left to do is spread it on a sheet of rolled-out puff pastry, top it with anchovy fillets and capers, and bake it to a golden brown. Use any kind of flaky pastry or pie dough you wish, or even spread the mixture on yeasted pizza dough. Accompany with a salad of small lettuce greens if desired. The tart is delicious served warm or at room temperature.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 medium onions, diced (about 3 cups)
Salt and pepper
3 medium leeks, white and tender green parts, diced (about 2 cups)

TOMATO TART WITH CAPERS, ANCHOVIES, AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS



Tomato Tart with Capers, Anchovies, and Caramelized Onions image

Categories     Salad     Onion     Tomato     Side     Bake     Kosher     Pastry     Anchovy

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 cups thinly sliced onions (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 tablespoon thyme leaves
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 sheet frozen all-butter puff pastry
1 extra-large egg yolk
3 medium heirloom tomatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds), mixed colors
3 or 4 salt-packed anchovy fillets, rinsed, bones removed
2 teaspoons salt-packed capers, soaked and drained
1/4 cup Niçoise olives, pitted, cut in half
1/2 pint cherry tomatoes, cut in half
1 tablespoon finely diced shallot
1 tablespoon super-good extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 lemon, for juicing
1 bunch arugula, cleaned and dried
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/4 cup small basil leaves, preferably green and opal
1/4 cup 1/2-inch-snipped chives
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat a large sauté pan or Dutch oven over high heat for 2 minutes. Swirl in 3 tablespoons olive oil, and add the onions, 2 teaspoons thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and some pepper. Cook 10 minutes, stirring often. Turn the heat down to medium, add the butter, and cook 15 minutes, stirring often and scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon, until the onions are a deep golden brown. Let cool completely before you make the tart, so they don't melt the pastry.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Place the defrosted puff pastry on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Use a paring knife to score an 1/8-inch-thick border around the edge of the pastry. Whisk together the egg yolk and 1 teaspoon water. Brush the border with the egg wash. Spread the caramelized onions evenly within the border.
  • Core the heirloom tomatoes. Hold each tomato on its side and slice it into 1/4-inch-thick round slices. Place the tomato slices, just touching but not overlapping, on top of the caramelized onions (there will be some onion peeking through). If necessary, cut some of the tomato slices in half so they fit, placing the cut side of the slices flush with the border. Season the tomatoes with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grindings of black pepper.
  • Slice the anchovies thinly on the diagonal.
  • Arrange the anchovies, capers, and olives over the tomatoes and onions. Sprinkle the remaining teaspoon of thyme over the tart.
  • Bake the tart 10 minutes. Turn the sheet pan, and bake another 10 to 12 minutes, until the crust is deep golden brown.
  • Just before serving, place the cherry tomatoes and diced shallot in a bowl, and season them with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grindings of black pepper. Drizzle the super-good olive oil over the tomatoes, squeeze in a little lemon juice, and toss together. Add the arugula and herbs and toss well. Taste for seasoning. Cut the tart into six wedges, and place on six plates. Arrange some of the cherry tomato-herb salad next to each wedge of tart.

Tips:

  • For a crispier tart crust, pre-bake the crust for 10-15 minutes before adding the filling.
  • Slice the tomatoes thinly and evenly so they cook evenly.
  • Use a variety of colorful tomatoes for a more visually appealing tart.
  • Don't overcrowd the tart pan with tomatoes; they should be arranged in a single layer.
  • Bake the tart until the crust is golden brown and the tomatoes are softened and caramelized.
  • Let the tart cool slightly before slicing and serving.
  • Garnish the tart with fresh herbs, such as basil or thyme, for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

This tomato tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. The combination of sweet tomatoes, salty anchovies, and briny capers is irresistible. The caramelized onions add a touch of sweetness and depth of flavor. This tart is also very versatile; you can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this tomato tart a try. You won't be disappointed!
