Savoury Puff Pastry Tart
Weekend indulgence looks like this for us. With store bought frozen puff pastry, veggies in my fridge peeking through the mesh bags, eggs, cheese and herbs, this made to be a super quick and deliciously, indulgent meal. This makes to be a fulfilling meal on a busy week day too.
The versatility of this dish is, you can use any vegetables or proteins of choice to make this. I have tried this with various vegetable options but for me, the one constant is shallots or onions. Rest everything is as per the availability and season. Using local and seasonal produce is highly recommended. I also like to use either pizza sauce or white sauce in it. Add a few spoonfuls of pesto after it is baked if using, instead of any other sauce. Using eggs is optional. I definitely recommend brushing the edges of the puff pastry with either milk or eggs for delicious crispiness.
