Ingredients
Puff Pastry:
1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
Sour Cream Mixture:
1/2 cup sour cream, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon horseradish (optional)
Filling:
1 cup cooked roast beef (thinly sliced or chopped), 3/4 cup shredded Gruyère cheese, 1 small red onion (thinly sliced), 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, salt and black pepper to taste, 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash), chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the sour cream mixture: In a small bowl, mix sour cream, Dijon mustard, and horseradish until smooth. Set aside.
- Prepare the pastry: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry and cut into 6 equal squares. Score a 1/4-inch border around each square without cutting through. Place the squares on the baking sheet.
- Assemble the tarts: Spread a thin layer of the sour cream mixture inside each border. Top with chopped roast beef, Gruyère cheese, and red onion slices. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with thyme, salt, and pepper. Brush the edges with beaten egg.
- Bake: Bake for 18–20 minutes until golden and puffed.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- These tarts are versatile for various occasions.
- Substitute Gruyère with Swiss or Fontina.
- Leftover steak or deli roast beef are great alternatives.
