Turkey, Bacon and Brie Tart
Serves 61 quantity of shortcrust pastry, baked blind in a flan tin.
1 small onion, finely chopped
100g streaky bacon, chopped
Approx. 200-300g cold cooked turkey
250ml double cream
3 large eggs
100g ripe Brie
25g Parmesan, grated
zest of half a lemon
salt & freshly ground pepper
Heat the oven to 170C
1. Gently saute the onion in a little butter, add the bacon pieces and cook until golden, leave to cool.
2. Spread the onion and bacon in the base of the flan, chop the turkey into generously sized pieces and scatter over the onion and bacon.
3. Break off pieces of Brie and distribute evenly across the flan base.
4. Whisk the eggs, add the cream, lemon zest, seasoning and grated Parmesan, pour into the flan case.
5. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the filling is golden brown and just set in the centre. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
This is a very rich tart and only needs a green vegetable or salad to make a meal.
What did you do with your leftovers?
I love pies and tarts and this one looks gorgeous! I would have to have a little leftover cranberry sauce on the side. Brie and cranberry are such a delicious combination. What a great way to combine some of the very best of Christmas.
