British Brie and Asparagus Tart Recipe: Veggie

Ingredients
Method

Ingredients:

150g fine asparagus spears, halved
few drops of vegetable oil
320g ready-rolled puff pastry, thawed if frozen
200g British brie, sliced
100g roasted red peppers (from a jar), drained and sliced
freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp semi-skimmed milk

method:

Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7.
Cook the asparagus in boiling water for 3-4 minutes. While it’s cooking, lightly grease a baking tray with the vegetable oil and unroll the puff pastry sheet onto it. Score a border of 2cm all around the sides, taking care not to cut right through.
Drain the asparagus and rinse with cold water. Arrange on top of the pastry sheet, within the border, with the brie and the peppers. Season with black pepper. Brush the edges of the pastry with milk.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the pasty has risen and is golden brown. Serve while warm.
