 tarts

Ingredients


• 4 frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 150g chopped bacon
• 100g marinated feta, drained, crumbled
• 4 eggs
• 2 tablespoons grated parmesan
• Wild rocket, to serve

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C and line a tray with baking paper.

2. Using a saucer as a guide, cut circles about 13cm diameter from each pastry sheet. Transfer to the tray, then score a 2cm border around each circle, without cutting right through. Prick area inside border with a fork. Chill for 10 minutes.

3. Heat oil in a frypan over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until it starts to crisp. Remove and drain on paper towel.

4. Fill each tart base with feta and top with bacon, staying within the border. Bake for 8 minutes or until the sides have risen. Gently push down the pastry in the centre using the back of a spoon, then break an egg into each. Season, sprinkle with parmesan, then return to the oven for a further 5-7 minutes until the eggs are set and the pastry is golden. Serve with rocket.
