Ingredients
Scale
- One sheet puff pastry
- one egg for egg wash
- One bunch of asparagus, trimmed
- One small bunch of chives
- A few mint leaves
- 1/2 cup goat cheese
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- Lemon for juice and zest
- Salt and pepper
- Olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the asparagus. Blanch in boiling water for 30-45 seconds (depending on thickness) and immediately remove to an ice bath to stop the asparagus from continuing to cook.
- Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper and roll out one sheet of puff pastry.
- Score a border around the edges.
- Mix the zest and juice of one lemon with goat cheese and ricotta cheese. Whisk to get a creamy and spreadable texture—season with salt and pepper.
- Spread evenly on the puff pastry, ensuring staying inside the scored edge.
- Layout the asparagus evenly on the tart and drizzle with olive oil and a pinch of salt.
- Bake for about 20 minutes in a 375º oven.
