Asparagus Tart
This is such an old recipe from my Mom.
She only made it during the Spring because the asparagus were so nice.
One defrosted puff pastry crust
16 ounces ricotta cheese
zest of 1/2 lemon
4 rounded tablespoons Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
30 asparagus
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1/4 teaspoon salt
Ten ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
3 slices provolone cheese
Preheat oven to 450 degrees
Mix the ricotta cheese, lemon zest, salt and pepper together.
Set aside.
Roll out the puff pastry to a 8 by 6 rectangle
Spread the ricotta cheese on top
Sauté the garlic with the olive oil
Add the asparagus and coat well with the oil and garlic
Add the salt
Layer the asparagus with the oil and garlic over the ricotta cheese
Sprinkle with the parmesan cheese
Bake for 10 minutes
Take out of the oven and place the provolone cheese and mozzarella cheese on top
Bake for another 12 minutes or until the crust is nice and brown
Serve hot.
