Vegetable, Rice and Feta Tart
Here’s a tempting look at what this dish looks like:
Ingredients:
- 1 pre-made shortcrust pastry or homemade pastry
- 1 cup of cooked rice
- 200g feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 cup of mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, and spinach)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup of milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs like parsley or dill for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).
- Roll out your shortcrust pastry and place it in a tart tin. Prick the base with a fork and line it with baking paper. Fill it with baking beans or rice to blind bake for about 15 minutes or until lightly golden.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a separate bowl, combine the cooked rice, crumbled feta cheese, and your choice of mixed vegetables. Stir until everything is well coated.
- Once the pastry is ready, remove the baking beans and pour the rice and vegetable mixture into the tart shell. Pour the egg and milk mixture over the top, ensuring even distribution.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.
- Once done, allow it to cool slightly before removing it from the tin.
- Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, slice, and serve warm or at room temperature.
