Ingredients
Scale
One sheet puff pastry
One red onion (Or you can use yellow onion or shallots), sliced thin. (I use a Mandolin like this, which makes it so easy to get nice thin slices all the same size).
One garlic clover, chopped
A little white wine (or water if you don’t have a bottle open).
A little fresh thyme, removed from the stem
Two-ounces garlic-herbed goat cheese
One large tomato, sliced into four thick slices
3–4 basil leaves, julienned
Two ounces of parmesan cheese, grated, and then 8-12 slices shaved with a vegetable peeler for on top at the end when you are ready to put them under the broiler.
Instructions
Start with one sheet of puff pastry, roll it out, and cut four rectangles
Slice the onion and sautรฉ in olive oil; add the garlic and a tablespoon of white wine. Cook until onions have softened a bit.
Add salt and pepper; add a little fresh thyme.
On a baking sheet with parchment paper, make four squares on the sheet with olive oil.
Top with a tomato slice, then top it with the sautรฉed onions.
Add a little garlic-herbed goat cheese on top of the onions.
Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.
Place the puff pastry on top, and use the fork’s tines around all four edges.
Prick the top of each pastry with the fork.
Brush with an egg wash and sprinkle a little flaky sea Salt.
Bake for about 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven, and flip onto a cooling rack.
Start with a new piece of parchment paper on the baking sheet.
Place the tarts that have been turned upside down onto the parchment paper with the tomato thatโs now on top.
Place 2-3 shards of parmesan cheese on top of each and place under the broiler for a minute.
Sprinkle a little julienned basil on top (just like Ina), and serve!
Notes
These tarts can be served hot from the oven or at room temperature.ย
