Mediterranean Mushroom Tarts with Greek Yogurt

 

Yields: 4 tarts

Prep time: 20 minutes

Cook time: 20-25 minutes

 

Ingredients:

• 1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 pound cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup dry white wine
• 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 egg, beaten

 

Instructions:

 

Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Prepare the mushrooms: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook1 for 1 minute more. Add mushrooms and cook until tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Make the filling: Add white wine to the skillet and cook until reduced by half. Stir in Greek yogurt, Parmesan cheese, and oregano. Cook until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Assemble the tarts: Cut the puff pastry sheet into 4 squares. Place each square on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon the mushroom mixture evenly onto the pastry squares, leaving a 1/2-inch border.

Brush and bake: Brush the edges of the pastry with beaten egg. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.

Serve: Let the tarts cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh oregano sprigs, if desired.

Mediterranean Touches:

 

Greek Yogurt: Substituting heavy cream with Greek yogurt adds a tangy, creamy element that is characteristic of Mediterranean cuisine. It also makes the tarts lighter.

Oregano: This herb is widely used in Mediterranean cooking and adds a savory flavor to the tarts.

White Wine: Using white wine in the sauce adds a subtle complexity and enhances the savory flavors.

Enjoy your Mediterranean-inspired Mushroom Tarts!
