Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
- 1 bunch asparagus tough ends trimmed
- 1 cup Mushrooms quartered
- 1 small white onion finely chopped
- 2 cups gruyere cheese shredded ( or other cheese of your choice)
- 1 Tablespoon Butter Melted
- 1 teaspoon Garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
- Salt and Black Pepper Per taste
- ½ cup parmesan cheese shredded optional garnish
Instructions
- Prepare The veggies : To prepare the asparagus, snap off the tough ends and discard them. Clean the stalks under cold running water thoroughly to remove all the sand trapped in the stalks. Clean the mushrooms and cut them into bite sized pieces. Finely chop white onion.
- Sauté the Veggies : In a large pan, over medium heat, add olive oil. Add chopped onion. Sprinkle some salt over it. Sauté on high for few minutes. Add chopped mushrooms and asparagus. Add Seasoning . Continue to sauté on medium-high heat for 2-4 minutes until mushrooms start to release water. Turn off heat. Let them cool off for 10 minutes.
- Prepare the Puff Pastry : Thaw your puff pastry on the counter so it’s easy to roll. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a rolling pin to gently roll out puff pastry on a lightly floured surface, make it fitting the rectangle, then transfer to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Prepare the Puff Pastry Tart : In a small bowl, mix together melted butter, minced garlic and Italian seasoning and black pepper. Spread the garlic butter mixture on the rolled puff pastry using a pastry brush. Add the sautéed veggies over the pastry sheet. Sprinkle cheese over the top.
- Bake : Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Put the puff pastry tart in the oven. Bake tart for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and flaky. Slice into pieces. Sprinkle cheese as a garnish and serve warm. Enjoy !
- If you want to Air Fry : If using air fryer, roll the puff pastry tart on air fryer basket ( depending upon the size and shape of your air fryer ) lined with silicon mat or perforated parchment paper. Air fry at 350 degree Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes until the crust is golden brown and flaky. Slice into pieces. Sprinkle cheese as a garnish and serve warm. Enjoy !
