Mini Tomato and Basil Tartlets image

I am not sure where I found this recipe, but these are great appetizer's and they freeze so well. The family loves these for a quick and easy snack after work or school. Parmesan cheese can be substituted for cheddar if you prefer. Finely chopped spring onions, can also be added or substituted for basil. I have included tips on freezing below.

Categories     Cheese

Time 40m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 sheets puff pastry, thawed
1/2 cup sun-dried tomato, well chopped
1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
1/3 cup cheddar cheese, finely grated
3 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
sea salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180°C.
  • Grease two tartlet trays with 12 holes in each tray.
  • Use a 7cm (3in) round cookie cutter to cut circles from the pastry then place into tartlet holes.
  • Combine the tomatoes, basil and cheese in a bowl then divide the mixture between pastry shells.
  • In another bowl whisk together the eggs and sour cream salt and pepper, then spoon a small amount into each pastry shell.
  • Carefully stir each of the tartlets to combine the filling and the egg mixture.
  • Bake in preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown. (If freezing see cooking tip below.).
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool.
  • TIP~ If the filling is cooked but the underside of the pastry is still uncooked as some ovens will cook pastry better than others, place them upside-down on an oven tray and brown briefly under the grill. Be careful that they don't burn.
  • IF FREEZING ~.
  • Cook tartlets until just lightly browned and filling is just firm.
  • TO FREEZE.:.
  • Let tartlets completely cool and flash freeze the tartlets on a tray lined with baking paper and when frozen transfer to a freezer bag or plastic container.
  • To Defrost ~.
  • Remove from freezer and defrost on bench, or in the fridge or in the microwave; you can also put one or two in the lunch box and they'll be defrosted by lunchtime.
  • To reheat ~ (from frozen).
  • Place frozen tartlets on tray and place in warm oven and cook for approx 10 minutes.
