Caramelized Onion And Mushroom Tartlets Food

CARAMELIZED ONION AND MUSHROOM TARTLETS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Unroll dough on work surface (if using crescent rolls, pinch seams to seal); cut into 24 (2-inch) squares. Press 1 square in bottom and up side of each of 24 ungreased mini muffin cups.
• In 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and thyme; cook 8 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 6 to 9 minutes, stirring constantly, until onions are caramelized. Stir in brown sugar and wine; cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until liquid is gone. Stir in mushrooms. Spoon about 1 tablespoon onion-mushroom mixture into each cup. Top with walnuts and cheese.
• Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove tartlets from pan immediately. Serve warm.

CARAMELISED MUSHROOM TARTLETS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a generous frying pan, add the onion and fry over moderate heat for about 7 mins until soft and golden. Stir in the sugar and seasoning, turn up the heat and add the mushrooms. Sizzle for 5 mins until you have driven off any moisture and the mushrooms are golden. Stir in the garlic for a few further mins, until fragrant, then turn off the heat and stir in most of the thyme (save some for sprinkling). The mushroom mix can be chilled at this point.
• To make the tartlet bases, cut 7-8cm circles out of the bread using a cookie cutter or glass. Butter one side and stick buttered-side down into a 12-hole tartlet tin. Freeze any leftovers to make breadcrumbs.
• When ready to bake, heat oven to 220C/200 fan/gas 7. Divide the mushroom mixture between the tartlets and top with a sprinkle of cheese. Don't be too tidy about this - any cheese on the tin will form a lacy edge to the tartlets. Bake for 10-15 mins until golden and bubbling. Sprinkle over the reserved herbs and serve.

EASY TART WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS, MUSHROOMS AND GRUYèRE

Steps:

• Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the olive oil and the butter together, followed by the sliced onions. Cook for about 10 minutes or until the onions wilt and start to brown. At that point add the next three ingredients (sugar, vinegar, salt and pepper). Reduce the heat and cook gently, uncovered for about 20 more minutes or until the onions are completely caramelized. Add a little water if the onions look like they are drying out. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Remove the onions to a separate bowl.
• Add the sliced mushrooms to the same pot and sauté (without oil) for a few minutes until they release their moisture. At that point, add a little olive oil and the thyme leaves and cook for a few minutes, stirring frequently. Once the mushrooms start lightly brown, add the sliced potatoes and the fennel seeds. Season everything with some salt and pepper and cook for a few more minutes, until the potatoes soften a little. Set the mixture aside to cool.
• Unfold the thawed sheet of puff pastry and place it on a work surface. Roll it out into a 10"x14" rectangle and remove it to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Prick with a fork every few inches to prevent the pastry from bubbling while it bakes. Using a very sharp knife, score the perimeter of the dough about ¼- to ½-inch from the edge.
• Spread the cooled onions evenly over the puff pastry. Top with the sautéed mushrooms and potatoes and sprinkle with the Gruyère cheese. (Refrigerate if not baking immediately).
• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Bake the puff pastry on the middle rack for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling and crust is nice and golden. Allow the tart to cool for 10 minutes then cut it into 20 little rectangles. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Cover the tart with parchment and fill with beans. Bake 15 minutes, remove the parchment and beans and bake another 5 minutes. Remove and allow to cool.
