Preparation
Step 1
- Combine flour, salt, cubed butter, parmesan and eggs into dough. If the dough is crumbly, add 1-2 tbsp of cold water, to make the dough more coherent.
- Add the ground thyme and wrap the finished dough in cling film and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Step 2
- Heat the oven to 180°C and prepare tartelette moulds.
- Moulds with removable bottoms are best for an easy dough release. Butter the moulds lightly.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator. Roll out thinly between two cling film layers. Cut out circles to completely fill the tartelette forms.
- Pierce the base with a fork, place a circle cut from baking parchment on top of the dough and fill with dry beans. Bake for 10-15 min.
- This method is referred to as ‘blind baking’ (baking crust without filling).
Step 3
- Remove moulds from the oven and remove the baking parchment.
- Meanwhile, preparet the filling for the crust.
- In a pan, heat vegetable oil and sauté chopped onions and spread onto the crust.
- Steam the broccoli, chop finely and spread over the cooked onions.
- Add goat cheese and Season with salt and pepper.
Step 4
- Whip eggs with MEGGLE Creme Cuisine and pour carefully into each mould.
- Chop pecan nuts and sprinkle on them on top. Bake for 20 min.
