Categories     Vegetable

Number Of Ingredients 12

• One ready-to-bake pastry crust for a 9-inch tart
• 3 tbsp. butter, divided
• 1 tbsp. olive oil
• 1/2 lb. fresh spinach, washed and stemmed
• 1 tbsp. lemon juice
• 1 tsp. minced garlic
• 2 small leeks, white parts only, thinly sliced
• 1/2 c. bread crumbs
• Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
• 1/2 c. peeled, seeded and diced fresh tomatoes
• 2 tbsp. minced parsley, for garnish
• 2 tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Fit pastry into 9-inch springform pan. Bake and let cool slightly in the pan. To prepare filling, in a skillet heat 1 tablespoon of the butter and the olive oil over moderate heat. Add spinach and lemon juice; cook 2 minutes. Transfer to a strainer; press to extract excess liquid. Return skillet to moderate heat; add remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Add garlic and leeks; saute until leeks are softened but not browned (about 10 minutes). Stir in bread crumbs; add salt and pepper. Arrange spinach around sides and bottom of baked, cooled crust. Spoon in leek mixture. Spoon tomatoes over top. Return to oven; bake until filling is hot throughout (5 to 8 minutes). Let filling rest 3 to 5 minutes before unmolding tart. Garnish with parsley and Parmesan before serving.

I've made this tart several times now and it's always a hit. It's a great way to use up leftover spinach and leeks, and it's always a crowd-pleaser.

This tart was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would add some more herbs or spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of spinach, but this tart was surprisingly delicious. The leeks and cheese really balanced out the spinach flavor. I would definitely make this again.

This tart was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I would use less cheese next time.

This tart was a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was runny. I don't know what went wrong, but I won't be making this recipe again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my tart didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. The crust was a bit too dry and the filling was a bit bland. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

This tart was a bit too rich for my taste. The filling was very creamy and the crust was a bit too thick. However, I think it would be great for a special occasion.
