Caramelised mushroom tartlets

These tartlets are great for small get togethers, formal dinners, Christmas parties and New Years gatherings.

Our caramelised mushroom tartlets are super simple to make and packed full of deliciousness. The nuttiness of the gruyere cheese perfectly complements the deep, rich flavours of the chestnut mushrooms, creating a moreish treat for your guests.

What you'll need...

  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 250g chestnut mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp golden caster sugar
  • Handful of thyme leaves, finely chopped
  • Egg, for brushing
  • Butter, for the muffin tray
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed according to package instructions
  • 100g grated gruyere cheese, for sprinkling

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 220C / 200C fan / gas 7. 

  2. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan. Add the onion and fry over a medium heat for roughly 7 minutes or until soft and golden. Stir in the sugar and seasoning, turn up the heat and add the mushrooms. Cook for 5 minutes or until the mushrooms are brown. 

  3. Stir in the garlic and cook for a few minutes or until fragrant. Turn off the heat and stir in ¾ of the thyme, saving some for sprinkling. Chill the mushroom mix until needed. 

  1. Make the tartlet base by unfolding the pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Gently roll to create a larger surface area without rolling the pastry too thin. Use a cookie cutter to cut out circles that fit the muffin tray. Once the pastry has been cut, grease the muffin tray with a light spread of butter. Press the pastry into the muffin tray, brush the edges of the pastry with the egg, and prick the centres of the pastries with a fork. 

  2. Divide the mushroom mixture between the tartlets and sprinkle the cheese on top. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden and bubbling. Remove and allow them to cool on a wire rack before sprinkling over any remaining herbs before serving.
