Tantalising Tart

There are certain combinations in life that you just can’t go wrong with. Chicken and mushroom. Prawn and peri-peri. Steak, egg and chips. Vodka and lime. Oops, that one just slipped out. And another great combo goes something like this…

Tantalising Tart.

Tart

This is a rework of a dish that my mom used to make when I was younger. A quadruple-layered tart with a biscuit base, salmon pate, avo and egg mayo. Simple, pretty and delicious. This recipe is for a circular springform baking dish, but I made a mini tart which was about a third of the ingredients. To be honest, I used a can with the top and bottom removed, but using circular mould rings would be ideal.

Biscuit:

1 packet Cream Crackers, crushed

200g butter, melted

Salmon:

1 large can pink salmon, bones removed

1 tub Mediterranean Deli Salmon Pâté

Avo:

3 large avos, mashed

Lemon juice, to taste

Salt and pepper to taste

Egg mayo:

6 eggs, hardboiled and grated

1½ Tbsp mayo

Salt and pepper to taste

Side salad:

Mediterranean Deli Calamata Olives

Baby tomatoes

Rocket and Watercress

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

Line that dish:

1. Line springform with plastic wrap.

Oh, you biscuit:

2. Mix crushed biscuit with melted butter into a consistency that is workable. Use to create the bottom layer.

Salmon time:

3. Canned pink salmon is perfect in this recipe. Remove bones and combine with Mediterranean Deli Salmon Pâté. Spread a layer on the biscuit.

Avo lurve:

4. Season mashed avo and create the third layer.

Grate that egg:

5. Grate eggs, combine with mayo, season and create fourth layer. Place the tart in the fridge for abut 20minutes to set.

Chill out:

6. Serve with a side salad of lettuce, baby tomatoes and stunning Mediterranean Deli Calamata Olives, season with black pepper and Maldon sea salt.
