Smoked Salmon Tart
This was an excellent tea made by my girlfriend, well worth a write up. Pre-rolled pastry is a great shortcut to delicious dinners.
You will need
- A pack of pre-rolled puff pastry
- Half a large onion (finely sliced)
- A pack of smoked salmon (great use of the cheap packs of offcuts)
- Half a small tub of soft cheese
- A big squeeze of lemon juice
- A good scattering of capers
- Egg if you’re bothered about glazing the edge
- a slug of olive oil
Do
- Softened the onions in a pan with the olive oil until translucent
- Let them cool a bit
- Add the soft cheese and lemon juice
- Bake the pastry on a sheet at 180 for a few minutes
- Pile it all into the middle of the pasty and spread towards the edges, leave as much crust as you’d like
- Scatter with salmon and capers
- Egg wash the crust if you’re into that sort of thing
- Return to the oven and bake until the edges are golden and the topping has a hint of char
Result
I’m sure this was meant to feed six but we didn’t let that get in the way.
