Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 red bell peppers
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed (half of 17.3 oz. package)
3 large eggs
3/4 cup whipping cream
3/4 cup packed freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper (optional)
2 cups arugula
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
salt, to taste
ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Coulis:.
  • Char peppers over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag 10 minutes.
  • Peel and seed peppers. Transfer peppers to blender and puree until very smooth. Season to taste with salt. (Coulis can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before serving.).
  • Tart:.
  • Roll out pastry sheet on floured surface to 1/8-inch thick square. Trim edges to form 11-inch diameter round. Transfer to 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Fold in overhang to form double-thick sides. Pierce pastry with fork. Cover and chill 1 hour. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated.).
  • Preheat oven to 425°F Line pastry with foil; fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake crust until sides are set, about 20 minutes. Remove foil and beans. Bake crust until bottom is golden brown, pressing with back of fork if bubbles form, about 8 minutes. Transfer tart to rack. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F.
  • Whisk eggs, cream, Parmesan cheese, and salt and black pepper in medium bowl to blend. Pour egg mixture into hot tart crust. Bake tart until custard is set, 30-40 minutes. Cool slightly.
  • Salad:.
  • Toss arugula with oil and lemon juice in large bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cut tart into wedges; drizzle with coulis. Serve warm with arugula salad.

This parmesan tart is a great way to use up leftover cheese. I had a bunch of parmesan in my fridge that I needed to use up, and this recipe was the perfect solution.

I'm not a big fan of parmesan cheese, but I really enjoyed this tart. The filling was rich and flavorful, and the crust was perfectly crispy.

This recipe was easy to follow and the tart turned out beautifully. I used a store-bought crust to save time, but I think next time I'll try making my own.
