MUSHROOM GARLIC CREAM TARTS
This is a recipe from Pillsbury.com. l always have to double the recipe because they get eaten up so fast. People can't believe it only take 15 minutes to throw these little gems together. If you end up doubling the recipe, I suggest using just 3 Tbsp butter and 3/4 cup cream. Otherwise the filling can get a little runny. This is a very easy recipe to change according to your tastes. Substitute olives for mushrooms, use chives, chopped nuts, even artichoke hearts, whatever you like. I also generally use margarine, light cream and low fat crescent rolls and they're still delicious. You can't go wrong with this recipe. Enjoy!!

MUSHROOM AND ROQUEFORT TOMATO TARTS
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400˚F. Roll out pastry dough and using a bowl approximately 14-15cm in diameter, cut out four rounds. Do not force or stretch the dough. Transfer the dough to a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Place the cheese in the middle of each pastry round, leaving about 2cm around the edge of each round. Sprinkle each pastry round with a tablespoon of the chopped walnuts. Place about 8 mushrooms' worth of slices on top of the walnuts, pressing into the cheese/walnut mixture. Place 3 cherry tomato halves on each pastry round. Fold over the edges of the dough (making 4-5 folds, one fold at a time) and pressing lightly on the corners to gently seal the tarts. Brush the beaten egg on the dough border. Bake for 30 minutes or until crust is golden brown and the cheese melted. Meanwhile, sauté the remaining mushroom slices in the butter. Drain on a paper towel and set aside until the tarts are cooked. When the tarts are cooked, remove from baking tray to a cooling rack and cool for about 5 minutes. Place the sautéd mushroom slices on each tart and serve warm with a green salad.
MUSHROOM TARTS
Steps:
- Peel & finely slice shallots. Heat olive oil and saute shallots for about 10 mins or until soft. Peel & crush garlic and add to shallots. Wipe & finely chop mushrooms. There's no need to peel them. Add to shallot pan and saute until mushrooms are soft and all liquid has evaporated. (Don't skimp time on this bit or the final tart filling will be too runny.) Remove pan from heat and stir in the mustard. Stir in the cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Preheat oven to 190c / 375F / Gas Mark 5. Grease tart tins. (A larger 4x10cm diameter Yorkshire Pudding tin is ideal.) Roll out pastry to about 1/2 cm thick and line tins. Divide mushroom mixture equally between each tart and brush visible pastry with a little milk to help it brown. Bake for 30 mins or until pastry is golden. Sprinkle tops of tarts with fresh shredded tarragon or basil just prior to serving.
Tips:
- Choose the right mushrooms: Use a variety of mushrooms for the best flavor, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
- Sauté the mushrooms properly: Cook the mushrooms over medium-high heat until they are browned and tender.
- Use a good quality tart dough: You can make your own tart dough or use a store-bought one. If using a store-bought dough, be sure to thaw it according to the package directions.
- Don't overfill the tarts: The tarts should be filled about two-thirds full. If you overfill them, the filling will bubble over and make a mess.
- Bake the tarts until the filling is set: The tarts are done baking when the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
Conclusion:
Mushroom tarts are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a party or a casual get-together. With a variety of fillings and toppings to choose from, there is a mushroom tart for everyone. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give mushroom tarts a try.
