Zucchini And Carrots Roses Tart Food

ZUCCHINI ROSE TARTLETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Roll the puff pastry out to a 12-inch square on a floured work surface. Brush lightly with the olive oil and sprinkle evenly with the cheese, thyme and lemon zest. Cut into 6 even strips.
• Shingle alternating yellow and green slices of squash and zucchini along the length of each strip of dough making sure to leave half the dough strip uncovered and allowing the green and yellow skins to hang over one edge slightly. Fold the uncovered dough over the squash and pinch together at the two ends. Starting at one end, roll each strip into a spiral. Lightly press the rolled tarts into a muffin tin sprayed with cooking spray.
• Bake until the crusts are browned and crisp on the bottom, the top is dry and crisp and the squash is tender and browned on the edges, about 40 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool slightly. Serve warm.

ZUCCHINI AND CARROTS ROSES TART

Steps:

• Tart base: unfold a puff pastry sheet on a tart pan (cover all the surface). Place a parchment paper foil in the center and place on top of it some kind of weight (seeds, dry beans).
• Bake the tart base in the preheated oven at 350F/180C for 15/20 minutes. Remove the seeds/dry beans and the parchment paper. Let it cool down.
• Tart filling: in a medium bowl add the eggs, the ricotta cheese, the grated parmesan cheese and the grated nutmeg. Adjust with a pinch of salt. Also add the mozzarella in cubes and the fresh oregano. Mix everything up until smooth.
• Roses: slice the zucchini and the carrots for their length using a potato peeler or a mandolin. Place the slices in a bowl and cook in the microwave for 1 minute. This step will make the slices very soft and much easier to roll: they will not break while rolling.
• Spread the cheeses' cream on top of the tart base
• Take one long slice of a vegetable (I started with the zucchini) and roll it on itself very tightly. That's the core of our rose. Take another slice and keep rolling. With only 2/3 slices you should obtain a nice rose bud. Place the bud in the center of the tart: the cheesy cream will act like a glue and the vegetable bud will stay in place without any problem. Keep going creating rose buds of different colors/vegetables and placing them one next to the other in a spiral movement. Rose after rose you will obtain a beautiful and colored vegetable field of roses
• Brush some extra virgin oil of olive on top of the vegetables and bake the tart in the preheated oven at 380F/200C for 50 minutes.

RAINBOW ROSE VEGGIE TART

Steps:

• Unfold a puff pastry sheet over a tart pan. Place parchment paper or foil in the center and weight it down with beans or pie weight.
• Bake the tart base in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F for 15-20 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment paper. Let it cool.
• In a bowl, add the eggs, ricotta, grated parmesan cheese, grated nutmeg and pinch of salt. Add the mozzarella and oregano. Mix everything up until smooth.
• Slice strips of zucchini and carrots length-wise using a potato peeler or a mandolin. Place the slices in a bowl and cook in the microwave for 1 minute. This step will soften the slices and make them much easier to roll.
• Spread the cheese mixture on top of the tart base.
• Take one slice of a vegetable and roll it up very tightly-this will form the core of the rose. Take another slice and keep rolling. With around 2-3 slices you should obtain a decent-size rose bud. Place the bud in the center of the tart, pushing it down into the cheese. Keep rolling roses of different colors and place them one next to the other in a spiral formation.
• Brush olive oil on top of the vegetables and bake the tart at 375 degrees F for 50 minutes.

VEGETABLE ROSE HERB CHEESE TART RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Add the crackers to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until finely ground. Add the melted butter, salt, pepper, Parmesan cheese, melted butter and egg. Pulse until combined, scraping the sides to make sure everything is incorporated.
• Transfer the crust mixture to a 9-inch (22 cm) tart pan and place on a baking sheet. Use a spatula and your hands to press the crust into the bottoms and sides of the pan in an even layer.
• Bake the crust for 12-14 minutes, until the edges just begin to brown. Let cool completely.
• Make the filling: In a large bowl, use an electric hand mixer to beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add the sour cream and beat to combine. Add the egg and beat until incorporated. Use a spatula to fold in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, chives, dill, and thyme.
• Carefully pour the filling into the tart crust. Use an offset spatula to smooth the top in an even layer.
• Make the vegetable roses: Using a vegetable peeler, shave the zucchini and carrots into wide ribbons. Place in a large bowl and microwave for 1 minute to release excess water and make the ribbons more pliable.
• Rolling the vegetable ribbons tightly into roses, using 1-4 ribbons per rose for varying sizes.
• Starting in the center, nestle the vegetable roses into the filling, working to about ½ inch (1 ¼ cm) from the edge of the tart. Brush the tops of the roses with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Transfer the tart to the oven and bake for about 40 minutes, until the edges of the filling are golden and the center looks set.
• Let the tart cool completely. Slice and serve, or refrigerate and bring back to room temperature for at least 1 hour before serving.
• Enjoy!
