Provided by á-174942

Number Of Ingredients 18

EGG WASH:
3 medium sweet potatoes - (1 3/4 lbs)
2 tablespoons butter softened
2 large eggs beaten lightly
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped leeks
2 pounds cremini mushrooms coarsely chopped
4 garlic cloves minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme (or 1/2 tspn dried thyme)
1 container part-skim ricotta - (15 oz)
3 packages frozen chopped spinach - (10 oz ea) thawed, squeezed dry
3 large egg whites
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill or parsley
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 package frozen puff pastry - (17 1/4 oz) thawed
1 egg beaten, mixed with
1 teaspoon water
Fresh herb sprigs for garnish

Steps:

  • Peel and quarter sweet potatoes. Place in large pot, cover potatoes by 1 inch with salted cold water and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain potatoes, transfer to medium bowl and, while still warm, coarsely mash. Using electric mixer, beat in butter, eggs, salt and pepper to taste until smooth. In large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add leeks and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 10 minutes. Add mushrooms and garlic and cook, stirring often, until mushrooms release their liquid; allow to evaporate. Stir in thyme and season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper. Remove pan from heat and let cool. In medium bowl, mix ricotta cheese, spinach, egg whites, dill, red pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon salt until blended. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Unfold one puff pastry sheet and place on lightly floured surface. Roll out to a 14-inch square, then cut dough into a 14-inch circle. Transfer circle to ungreased 8 1/2- or 9-inch springform pan and press gently to fit into bottom and side (there will be some overhang for folding over top of pie). Spoon sweet potato mixture into pastry and pat into even layer. Spoon mushroom mixture over potatoes and spread evenly. Top with spinach mixture (filling may come slightly over top of pan). Carefully fold pastry overhang on top of the filling. Brush edges with egg wash and seal. Unfold second puff pastry sheet on lightly floured surface. Roll out slightly, then cut into an 8 1/2- or 9-inch circle. Place circle of dough over top and press edges into pan to seal. Brush top with egg wash and, using a small sharp knife or razor blade, slash top in a cross-hatch pattern. Bake 35 to 40 minutes. When well browned, loosely cover top with foil. Reduce heat to 350 degrees. Carefully remove side of pan and brush sides with egg wash. Bake until sides are golden, about 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before cutting into wedges and serving. Garnish each serving with fresh herb sprigs. This recipe yields 12 servings.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for fresh fruits and vegetables, and use real butter and cream.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. Check the cake regularly to make sure it doesn't overbake.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • When making the frosting, use a stand mixer or electric hand mixer to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to create a smooth and creamy frosting.
  • If you're using fresh fruit in the frosting, make sure to wash and dry it thoroughly before using.
  • Chill the cake before serving. This will help the frosting to set and make it easier to slice.
