Spring
vegetables have not arrived yet but leeks remind me of spring. I decided to
make an onion leek tart that would be a great side dish for Easter.
Preheat
oven to 425 degrees
Take
two onions and two leeks, only the white part, and thinly slice them.
In a
medium sauce pan, heat 3 tablespoons of butter and sauté them until they are
carmelized and golden brown, approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
Make sure your pan
is big enough so they are not overly crowded. Add sour cream, thyme and parsley.
Roll out the pie crust onto a parchment
lined baking sheet. Spread the sour cream mixture onto the pie crust leaving
approximately 1 ½ inch on the edge clear.
Top with the onion, leek mixture.
Fold over the edge of the pie crust
onto the tart
Brush crust with an egg wash
Bake 20 to 25 minutes until golden
brown.
Delicious and
so easy. You can also substitute crème fraiche for the sour cream.
This dish
will be a hit at your Easter table.
