MARINATED SHRIMP, ONION AND TOMATO TART



Marinated Shrimp, Onion and Tomato Tart image

Provided by Marc Murphy

Number Of Ingredients 12

18 large shrimp
10 garlic cloves crushed
1 pinch saffron
1 cups olive oil
6 onions
1 (8-ounce) can peeled tomatoes
2 anchovies
1/4 cup Calamata olives
4 sprigs thyme
1 sheet puff pastry
2 heads frisee
6 bunches mache

Steps:

  • A day in advance of preparing this dish, marinate shrimp in a mixture of 4 cloves crushed garlic, black pepper, 1/2 cup olive oil and 1 pinch of saffron. Refrigerate overnight. To prepare the marmalade, peel onions and cut them in half and slice thin. In a saucepan over low heat with 2 tablespoons of oil, cook the onions until transparent. Drain the tomatoes, remove the seeds, chop roughly and add to the onions. Add chopped anchovies, chopped olives and thyme, cook for 3 hours on very low heat, stirring often. Meanwhile cut out 6 rounds of puff pastry about 3 1/2 inches in diameter. Place on a baking sheet cover with a second sheet, and bake in the oven for 6 minutes at 350 degrees. Prepare the frisee by cutting off the green of the lettuce, use only the white part only. Chop frisee and wash well, reserve. In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, heat 1/4 cup olive until hot, and cook shrimp until pink and curled. Set the tomato marmalade on top of each tart round and warm in the oven for 5 minutes. Season the frisee with a little olive oil, salt and pepper. Take the tart out of the oven and set on a plate, dress some frisee on top of the tart and cover with shrimp. Garnish with the mache lettuce leaves. Drizzle olive oil around the tart and serve.

SHRIMP PHYLLO TARTS



Shrimp Phyllo Tarts image

These little spicy/tangy appetizers are a breeze to make using frozen phyllo shells. I like to boil my shrimp in Zatarain's crab boil for 3 minutes which gives the shrimp a little extra "zing". The serving size is 2 per person, but I've found from experience most people eat 3-4 so you may want to adjust accordingly.

POTTED SHRIMP TART WITH SHAVED RAINBOW BEET SALAD



Potted shrimp tart with shaved rainbow beet salad image

This stunning tart and colourful salad will get all the attention at a summer party. You can't beat homemade pastry, fresh veg and tasty shrimp!

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Lunch, Supper

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 18

400g baby new potatoes
5 whole eggs , plus 1 yolk
150ml double cream
50ml milk
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
a good grating of nutmeg
270g cooked and peeled brown shrimps
small handful chervil , dill or parsley, finely chopped
250g plain flour , plus extra for dusting
¼ tsp cayenne pepper , plus a pinch
1 tsp mustard powder
100g cold butter , chopped into small pieces
50g extra mature cheddar , finely grated
4-6 small beetroot (a variety of colours looks good)
3 tbsp rapeseed oil
1 tsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp cider vinegar
small punnet cress

Steps:

  • To make the pastry, tip the flour into a large bowl, add 1/ 2 tsp salt and mix through with the cayenne and mustard powder. Add the butter and use your fingertips to rub it into the flour until the mixture resembles damp sand. Mix through the cheese, then drizzle in 2-3 tbsp cold water. Squash the crumbs together until you have a smooth ball of pastry, tip onto your work surface and knead a few times to incorporate any dry crumbs. Wrap in cling film, pat into a flat disc shape and chill for at least 30 mins. Can be made up to a day before (or make and freeze for up to two months).
  • While the pastry chills, put the potatoes in a pan of cold, salted water, bring to the boil and simmer for 10-12 mins or until tender - a knife should easily pierce the potatoes when they are cooked. Drain and set aside until cool enough to handle. Slice the potatoes into 0.5cm discs and set aside to cool completely.
  • Remove the pastry from the fridge 10 mins before you're ready to roll it. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4, with a baking sheet heating up on the middle shelf. Lightly flour the work surface and roll the pastry until it's large enough to line a deep 23cm fluted tart tin - the pastry should be about the thickness of a £1 coin. Carefully lift the pastry into the tin and press it into the corners, patching up any holes with spare scraps of pastry. Trim the excess with a pair of scissors, but leave about 1cm overhanging. Line the case with baking parchment (it'll be more pliable if you scrunch it up in your hands first) then fill with baking beans. Place on the baking in the oven and bake for 15 mins, then remove the beans and parchment and return to the oven for a further 10 mins or until biscuity. Use a small serrated knife to trim the pastry flush with the tart tin. Reduce the oven temperature to 160C/140C fan/gas 3.
  • Mix the eggs, yolk, cream, milk, mustard and nutmeg in a jug with some seasoning. Toss the cooked potatoes, shrimps, herbs and some seasoning in a bowl, then pack into the tart case. Pour in the egg mixture, filling with the last few drops once the tart is back in the oven, to avoid spillages. Scatter with a pinch of cayenne, then bake for 50-55 mins or until just set- give the tart a shake, it should still have a slight wobble in the centre. Leave to cool to room temperature.
  • Now make the salad. Wear rubber gloves to peel the beetroot (to stop your hands straining), then slice as thinly as you can, using a mandolin if you have one. Whisk the oil, mustard and vinegar with some seasoning, and drizzle over the beets, then toss together. Serve on top of the cooled tart, or on the side in a big bowl, scattered with cress.

Categories     Seafood Appetizers

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 8 oz. of soften cream cheese, regular or light
1 1/2 tsp worcestershire sauce
2 tsp grated onion
1 tsp garlic powder/salt
1/8 tsp lemon juice
2 pkg 1.9 oz each frozen mini phyllo tart shells
1/2 c cocktail sauce
30 deveined, peeled & cooked medium shrimp

  • 1. In a small bow, combine the cream cheese, worcestershire sauce, grated onion, garlic power/salt and lemon juice. Blend well.
  • 2. Spoon into the tart shells and top with cocktail sauce and shrimp. Regrigerate until ready to serve.
  • 3. Tipp: You can either use the shrimp plain or steam them in old bay seasoning. I've made them both ways and either way is great. Enjoy.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh shrimp. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Be careful not to overcook the shrimp. They should be cooked just until they are opaque and pink.
  • If you don't have a tart pan, you can use a pie plate instead. Just trim the edges of the dough to fit the plate.
  • To make the tart ahead of time, bake it according to the recipe instructions and then let it cool completely. Store the tart in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • When you're ready to serve the tart, reheat it in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 15 minutes, or until it is warmed through.

Conclusion:

Shrimp tart is an elegant and delicious dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its flaky crust, creamy filling, and succulent shrimp, this tart is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
