Mushroom and pepper tartlets
Great for a picnic or tea-time snack
What you need
- 150 g butter, diced
- 250 g plain flour, sifted
- 1 egg yolk, lightly beaten
- for the filling
- 75 g button mushrooms, wiped and finely sliced
- 1/2 red pepper, cored, de-seeded and finely sliced
- 1/2 green pepper, cored, de-seeded and finely sliced
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 75 ml double cream
- seasoning
Method
Preheat oven to 200°C.
Rub the butter and flour together until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the egg yolk and enough cold water to form a smooth, pliable but not sticky dough.
Knead lightly. Roll out on a floured surface. Cut out 9 cm (3 1/2in) rounds, using a plain cutter, re-kneading and rolling as necessary.
Line a greased bun tin or tartlet tins with the pastry rounds.
Divide the mushrooms and peppers between the cases. Beat together the egg and cream. Season and pour into the tartlets.
Bake in the oven for 20-25 min until pale golden brown. Remove from the tins. Serve warm or cold.
