5 INGREDIENT ONION TART WITH MUSHROOMS RECIPE



5 Ingredient Onion Tart with Mushrooms Recipe image

Provided by The Wimpy Vegetarian

Categories     Appetizer     Vegetable Main or Side

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 frozen puff pastry
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 1/2 pounds yellow onions, (about 6 cups when thinly sliced)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, (divided (or half this amount with table salt))
1 cup finely chopped white mushrooms
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, (divided)
8 twigs fresh thyme, (divided)
9 roasted cherry tomato halves (or sun-dried tomatoes (optional))

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400˚F. Thaw the puff pastry according to the package directions, and carefully unfold it. The dough will look a little rough on the folds, so lightly roll it out using a rolling pin to even out the surface.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice 1 inch off of each side. Baste the edges of the square pastry with water using either a basting brush or your finger.
  • Then place all the cut edges onto the pastry square, forming a frame. This raised area will be the crust for the tart.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil, and place the puff pastry on it. Using a fork, prick the bottom of the tart numerous times. This will allow steam to escape without billowing the tart bottom up. Bake until lightly browned, about 25 - 30 minutes. If the tart bottom billows, prick with a sharp knife and gently press down. There's no need to completely flatten it, since the filling will weight it down.
  • When cooled, spread the bottom of the tart with the Dijon mustard. You don't need much - it just adds depth of savory-ness.
  • Thinly slice the onions using a sharp chef's knife. Add 2 tablespoons butter to a skillet and melt over medium-high heat. Pile in the sliced onions with 1/2 teaspoon salt, using tongs to toss and coat with the butter. The onions will begin to relax in 5 - 10 minutes. At this point, reduce the heat to medium. Sauté for 45 minutes, or browned.
  • Finely chop the mushrooms and sauté In a separate pan with 1 tablespoon of butter, 5 twigs of fresh thyme, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt over medium-low heat. Occasionally move around the pan, and sauté until the pan is dry. Mushroom contain a lot of liquid, and this can take 20 minutes or more. The mushrooms will be browned. Remove the thyme twigs when finished.
  • Add the mushrooms to the onions and stir to combine.
  • Lower the oven temperature to 350˚F. Fill the puff pastry with the onion filling. Add the tomatoes if using. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the tart from the oven and lightly sprinkle fresh thyme on top before serving.
  • Serve warm. Slice in half or quarters. For an appetizer, slice into small squares.

Bacon, Onion and Cheese Tart image

This is my take on a traditional French tarte flambee, made on a crispy crust and topped with fromage blanc, bacon and onions.

Provided by Geoffrey Zakarian

Time 1h5m

Yield two 13-by-9-inch tarts

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 slices thick-cut bacon, cut crosswise into thin matchsticks
1 large onion, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
3 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves removed and chopped
1/2 cup farmer's cheese
1/2 cup creme fraiche
1 large egg yolk
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, defrosted
1 tablespoon ground pecorino
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
  • In a medium saute pan, cook the bacon over a medium-low heat until it begins to render, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the onions and cook until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Season with pepper. Set aside to let cool. Add the thyme to the cooled bacon-onion mixture.
  • In a bowl, combine the farmer's cheese, creme fraiche, egg yolk and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
  • Flour a flat surface and place the puff pastry on top. Flour the top and gently roll into a 13-by-18-inch rectangle. Cut the pastry in half and transfer each to a lined sheet pan. Using a fork, dock the puff pastry (pierce it slightly with the tines), leaving a 1-inch border untouched.
  • Divide the cheese mixture between the two sheets of pastry and spread evenly on the docked area. Top each tart with half of the bacon-onion mixture.
  • Place the tarts in the oven on the lower racks and bake, rotating halfway through, until the crusts are dark golden, about 25 minutes. Garnish with the pecorino and chives.

Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
¼ pound thick-sliced bacon, chopped
2 cups thinly sliced red onions
1 (8 ounce) package sliced button mushrooms
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ cup ricotta cheese, drained
1 large egg yolk
1 cup grated Gruyere cheese

Steps:

Add bacon and cook until crisp around the edges but stiff soft in the center, 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Add onions, mushrooms, and thyme. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt to help vegetables release water. Cook, stirring often, until vegetables begin to wilt and most of the water has evaporated, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and transfer mixture to a platter.
  • Place ricotta cheese in a bowl. Beat in egg yolk and remaining oil until smooth. Season with salt and black pepper. Spread ricotta mixture to within 1/2-inch of the edges of the puff pastry. Sprinkle Gruyere cheese on top, then cover with mushroom mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown and crisp, 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality puff pastry. This will make all the difference in the final product. Look for a puff pastry that is made with real butter and has a high fat content.
  • Don't overwork the dough. This will make it tough and difficult to work with. Just mix the ingredients until they are well combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the pastry to rise and create a flaky crust.
  • Preheat the oven before baking. This will help the pastry to cook evenly.
  • Bake the pastry until it is golden brown. This will ensure that the pastry is cooked through and crispy.
  • Serve the pastry warm. This is when it is at its best. You can also serve it cold, but it will not be as flaky.
