Summer Vegetable Quails Egg Tart Food

SUMMER VEGETABLE & QUAIL'S EGG TART

Steps:

• Tip the bread mix into a large bowl and add the oil and 175ml lukewarm water. Knead for 5-10 mins until you have a smooth, elastic dough, then cover with cling film and leave to rise until doubled in size.
• Whizz the peas and cream cheese together in a blender or food processor until smooth, then stir in the soured cream, egg, shallots and sugar with some seasoning. Bring a medium pan of water to the boil. Add the broad beans for 30 secs, then lift them out with a slotted spoon into a bowl of cold water. Gently squeeze the bright green beans out of their thick skins and discard the skins. Meanwhile, add the leeks to the boiling water for 1 min 30 secs, then add the asparagus and boil for 1 min more. Drain well.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Roll the dough out on a large baking sheet to a rectangle 14 x 40cm, pressing down the centre to create a thicker 'crust' around the edge. Spread the pea cream in the middle of the tart and bake for 20 mins. Scatter over the leeks, asparagus and broad beans, then carefully crack over the eggs - you can arrange the veg to create little pockets if it helps. Drizzle with rapeseed oil and bake for another 5-7 mins. Scatter a few pea shoots over and serve straightaway, cut into thin slices.

ANY VEGETABLE TART

Steps:

• Put a rack in the center of the oven and heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner or parchment paper. If you like, you can sprinkle Gruyère or Cheddar onto the center of the liner or paper in an approximate 10-by-13-inch rectangle.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, Parmesan, lemon zest or rosemary, garlic (if using), and pinch of salt and pepper until smooth. Beat in the crème fraîche until smooth.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to form a 10-by-13-inch rectangle, about 1/8-inch thick. Transfer the dough to prepared baking sheet. (Place directly on top of the grated cheese, if applicable.) With a sharp knife, lightly score a 3/4-inch border around the edges of the puff pastry, making sure not to cut the pastry all the way through. Using a fork, prick the pastry all over inside the border at 1-inch intervals.
• Spread crème fraîche mixture evenly inside the scored border. Arrange vegetables in an even layer, using just enough to cover the surface in one layer. Scatter scallions and thyme or rosemary sprigs on top. Lightly drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden, and the vegetables are cooked through, about 25 to 35 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve topped with microgreens, herbs or baby lettuces, and accompanied by lemon or lime wedges, for squeezing.
