A tart made for summer dining, created for us by Louise at Family Fork. Simple to prepare and perfect for sharing with the classic combination of leek, ham and cheese.
Ingredients
-
100g nitrate free ham, diced
-
3 leeks, finely chopped
-
100g mature cheddar, grated
-
4 eggs, beaten
-
1 tbsp butter
-
1 shallot, finely chopped
-
250ml milk
-
1 pack filo pastry
-
fresh thyme, finely chopped
-
Salt & white pepper
Directions
Preheat the oven to 180c
Saute the chopped leeks and shallot in the butter and a pinch of salt until they are sweet and translucent
Add the cooked leeks and shallot to a bowl with the chopped ham, thyme and ¾ of the grated cheddar
Beat the milk into the beaten eggs and add to the ham and cheese bowl. Grind over a good helping of white pepper and mix well
Grease a pie tin with olive oil and line with layers of filo pastry, allowing the ends to hang over the pie tin and coating each layer with a little olive oil as you go. When all the layers are added, scrunch the overhanging edges to form the pie sides
Bake for 3-4 minutes in the preheated oven until lightly golden. Pour in the pie filling and carefully return to the oven
Bake for 25 minutes until the filling is set and golden
Serve hot or cold with seasonal greens or a crisp salad
