Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 red bell peppers
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed (half of 17.3 oz. package)
3 large eggs
3/4 cup whipping cream
3/4 cup packed freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper (optional)
2 cups arugula
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
salt, to taste
ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Coulis:.
  • Char peppers over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag 10 minutes.
  • Peel and seed peppers. Transfer peppers to blender and puree until very smooth. Season to taste with salt. (Coulis can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature before serving.).
  • Tart:.
  • Roll out pastry sheet on floured surface to 1/8-inch thick square. Trim edges to form 11-inch diameter round. Transfer to 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom. Fold in overhang to form double-thick sides. Pierce pastry with fork. Cover and chill 1 hour. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated.).
  • Preheat oven to 425°F Line pastry with foil; fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake crust until sides are set, about 20 minutes. Remove foil and beans. Bake crust until bottom is golden brown, pressing with back of fork if bubbles form, about 8 minutes. Transfer tart to rack. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F.
  • Whisk eggs, cream, Parmesan cheese, and salt and black pepper in medium bowl to blend. Pour egg mixture into hot tart crust. Bake tart until custard is set, 30-40 minutes. Cool slightly.
  • Salad:.
  • Toss arugula with oil and lemon juice in large bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cut tart into wedges; drizzle with coulis. Serve warm with arugula salad.

I'm not a big fan of parmesan cheese, but I still enjoyed this tart. The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was rich and creamy.

I'm not a huge fan of arugula, so I substituted baby spinach in the salad. It was still very good.

This tart is a great way to use up leftover parmesan cheese. I also added some chopped ham and mushrooms to the filling, which made it even more flavorful.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my tart didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The crust was a bit too dry, and the filling was a bit too runny. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This recipe was a bit more challenging than I expected, but the results were worth the effort. The tart was absolutely delicious, and the arugula salad was a perfect complement.

I've made this tart several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The crust is buttery and flaky, and the filling is rich and cheesy. The arugula salad adds a nice freshness to the dish.

This parmesan tart was a hit at our dinner party! The combination of the flaky crust, creamy filling, and peppery arugula was perfect. I especially appreciated the detailed instructions in the recipe, which made the process easy to follow.
