BABY TARTS OF BLUE CHEESE (GERMAN AND VEGETARIAN)



Baby Tarts of Blue Cheese (German and Vegetarian) image

This recipe from *Modern German Food* by Roz Denny sounds so good to me. Roz said "These tarts make a light simple lunch w/a mixed green salad or an unusual starter. Using a blue-veined soft cheese such a blue brie works best. This is ideal for vegetarians." The pic was stunning & I favor this as a starter course as I'm not sure I could limit myself to 1 tart when served as an entree. (Time does not include the 20 min chill time). *Enjoy* !

Steps:

  • Roll pastry to the thickness of a coin. Cut six 12-cm (5-in) rounds & fit into six 10-cm (4-in) tartlet tins or Yorkshire pudding tins. Press the dough rounds well into the sides to make sure they come up beyond the tin edges to allow for shrinkage.

  • Divide leeks + sauerkraut among the tart cases, drop in the crumbled or diced cheese & sprinkle w/the caraway or cumin seeds.
  • Beat the egg, yolks + milk & pour into the tarts, forking the mixtures to distribute well.
  • Return to the oven & bake for 20 min till risen & golden brown. Cool slightly b4 removing from the tins & serve warm.

GERMAN COTTAGE POTATOES WITH BACON



German Cottage Potatoes With Bacon image

Posting for ZWT 6 and it was found on About.com for German Food. It sounds delicious!! Article states: Bratkartoffeln are a German food that people often want to recreate at home. There are two main tricks to making great pan-fried potatoes. Start them in a single layer in the pan with plenty of fat and do not put a cover on the pan. These potatoes with take 20 - 30 minutes to cook a crispy, golden brown but the wait is worth it.

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb potato, about 5 medium
2 -3 ounces bacon, chopped (2-3 strips)
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 teaspoon marjoram (optional)
1/4 teaspoon caraway seed (optional)
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Scrub whole potatoes of the same size and cook in salted water until easily pierced with a fork. Let cool and peel while still warm. Potatoes can be cooked several hours ahead.
  • Chop bacon or "Bauchspeck" into small pieces and cook in a large frying pan (11 or 12 inches) until limp. Remove from pan but keep grease in pan. Add the butter and melt, but don't brown.
  • Slice the cold potatoes into 1/4 inch slices (5 mm) and place a single layer in the hot fat. Place any extra potatoes on top of the first layer.
  • Sprinkle the potatoes with the onions and bacon and let them cook over medium heat for 10 - 15 minutes. Flip them when they become golden brown on the underside, but don't stir them.
  • Sprinkle with marjoram, caraway, salt and pepper and cook for 5 - 10 more minutes. Add more butter if necessary, to facilitate browning.
  • At home, these potatoes are traditionally served with fried eggs, pickles and green salad.
  • Note: I use a non-stick pan, but the potatoes still need a lot of butter and grease to brown properly. This is an occasional treat for most people due to the high fat content, but they sure are good.

Blue Cheese & Pear Filling for Mini-Tartlets (German) image

I love this recipe from the *Food With Friends* section of *Modern German Food* by Roz Denny. Why do I love this recipe? - Because I like all easy, make-ahead, impressive & versatile food fare that convinces your guests you have taken spec care to enhance their dining pleasure. This recipe is versatile because it works as a finger-food appy, garnish for or part of a luncheon salad plate & creative addition to the popular fruit & cheese combo for dessert theme. I will opt for the latter as they are very popular here in Iceland. *Enjoy* !
