Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 190C/ 375F/ GM5 and line a large baking sheet with parchment.
  • Roll the pastry out to a rectangle approx. 20x30cm with a thickness of 2-3mm.
  • Trim the edges to neaten then lay the pastry onto the baking sheet and score a border about 1cm in from the edge. Prick the pastry inside of the border all over with a fork.
  • Slice the beetroot into rounds approx. 2mm thick. Lay the slices onto the pastry inside of the scored border.
  • Mix the oil and balsamic vinegar together and brush over the beetroot.
  • Slice or crumble the goat’s cheese and scatter over the tart.
  • Bake for approximately 30 minutes until the pastry is puffed and golden and the base is crisp (lift it carefully to check).
  • Let cool for 15 minutes then spoon little piles of the Funky Beetroot Chutney sporadically over the tart. Cut the tart into 8 pieces, scatter with rocket leaves and serve warm.

Serving Suggestions

  • This lovely tart goes wonderfully well with a rocket salad and some buttered new potatoes. Alternatively, it’s a great addition to a buffet table.

Notes


Expert Tips
• Take care not to cut all the way through the pastry when scoring the border.
• Don’t forget to neaten the edge of the tart once the pastry is rolled out. It makes all the difference to the final presentation
• Try our Rapture red onion chutney in place of the beetroot chutney.
• This tart is best eaten fresh and slightly warm but leftovers can be refrigerated for 2 days.
• Reheat as necessary in a low oven 150C/ 300F/ Gm 2 for around 10 minutes.
• For a change try scattering 1 tablespoon of chopped hazelnuts over the tart once baked. It adds extra flavour and crunch.
