Indulge in the earthy sweetness of roasted parsnips and vibrant beetroot nestled in a flaky puff pastry crust. This rustic tart is infused with aromatic garlic and fresh thyme, making it a delightful centerpiece for any gathering. The combination of creamy goat cheese adds a luscious tang, balancing the flavors beautifully. This dish harks back to European traditions of using root vegetables in hearty tarts, celebrating seasonal produce and home cooking at its finest.

Servings: 4

Ingredients

Puff pastry
1 sheet, thawed
Egg
1, beaten (for egg wash)
Goat cheese
4 ounces, crumbled
Salt
1/2 teaspoon, or to taste
Black pepper
1/4 teaspoon, or to taste
Fresh thyme
1 tablespoon, chopped
Garlic
3 cloves, minced
Onion
1 medium, thinly sliced
Olive oil
2 tablespoons
Beetroot
2 medium, peeled and diced
Parsnips
2 medium, peeled and diced

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced parsnips and beetroot, cooking for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.
  3. Add the sliced onion, minced garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and fragrant.
  4. Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to fit your baking sheet. Transfer it to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Spread the cooked vegetable mixture evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
  6. Sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese over the vegetable filling.
  7. Fold the edges of the puff pastry over the filling, creating a rustic tart shape that exposes the filling.
  8. Brush the edges of the pastry with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
  10. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
