Easy
20 minutes
25–30 minutes
Ingredients
- 400 g roll Woolworths frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 200 g Woolworths fresh ricotta
- 100 g feta, crumbled
- sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 230 g Woolworths Tenderstem® broccoli
- extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling
- 1 large free-range egg, beaten For the candied walnuts:
- 2 T caster sugar
- 1 T water
- 1 t butter
- 100 g walnuts
- sea salt, to taste For the salad:
- 1 t wholegrain mustard
- 2 t sherry vinegar
- 2 T extra virgin olive oil
- sea salt and black pepper, to taste
- 40 g wild rocket
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Unroll the puff pastry onto a lined baking tray. Score a 1 cm border around the edge and prick the centre of the pastry inside the border with a fork.
2. Spread the ricotta evenly within the border. Crumble over the feta and season with salt and pepper.
3. Lay the broccoli on top and drizzle with olive oil. Brush the pastry border with the egg.
4. Cover loosely with foil to prevent the broccoli from browning too much. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden.
5. To make the candied walnuts, place the sugar and water in a pan and simmer until a light syrup forms. Stir in the butter and walnuts and toss until glossy and golden. Sprinkle with flaky salt and allow to cool on a tray.
6. To make the salad, whisk together the mustard, sherry vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss with the rocket leaves and top with the candied walnuts.
7. Serve the tart warm or at room temperature with the salad on the side.
8. Cook’s note: You can swap Tenderstem broccoli for baby marrow ribbons or asparagus. The tart also keeps well and makes a great next-day lunch.
