Upside down puff tarts

Upside down puff tarts

These delicious little tarts are ideal as a starter, snack or main meal. Either use ready roasted vegetables or roast off in individual dishes/tins and then quickly pop the puff pastry round on top and immediately return to the oven.

What you need:

  • 4 x Jus-RolTM Individual Puff Pastry Rounds - thawed
  • 2 small red onions
  • 2 small red peppers
  • Little oil for drizzling
  • Few fresh thyme or basil leaves for garnish if desired

What you do:

  1. Preheat oven to 220oC (200 oC for fan assisted ovens) 425oF, Gas Mark 7
  2. Peel onions and cut each into half, then each half into 4-6 wedges. Cut peppers into medium sized pieces, removing seeds.
  3. Arrange the vegetables in lightly greased bases of 4 individual flan tins or dishes or other shallow, ovenproof dishes. Pack tightly as they will shrink slightly on cooking, drizzle with oil and cook for 6-8 minutes until they are just beginning to soften.
  4. Remove dishes from oven (best to have them on a baking tray for ease of handling) and quickly place a puff pastry round over each, tucking in around the edges. Return immediately to the oven and bake for 15-18 minutes until pastry is well risen and golden brown.
  5. Remove from oven and turn out immediately by inverting each dish onto a warmed serving plate.
  6. Serve warm with salad or vegetables of your choice.
