Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • ¼ cup Leggo’s Tomato Paste - Garlic & Herbs
  • 1 roma tomato, finely diced
  • 2 sheets frozen shortcrust pastry, thawed
  • 50g mascarpone cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped

Instructions

Step 1

To make the caramelized onions, heat butter and oil in a non-stick pan, add sliced onion and sugar and cook over a low heat, stirring occasionally, until tender and caramelized.

Step 2

Add Leggo’s Tomato Paste and cook for a further 3 minutes. Stir in diced tomato and set aside to cool.

Step 3

Meanwhile, cut each sheet of pastry into 12 x 6cm rounds to fit 2 x 12 cup mini muffin pans. Place 1 heaped teaspoon of the tomato mixture into each pastry cup and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 12 -15 minutes.

Step 4

Combine mascarpone cheese and basil and season with salt and pepper. Top cooked tartlets with a spoonful of mascarpone cheese and garnish with shaved parmesan cheese and a basil leaf.

Tasty Tip!

 Mascarpone can be substituted with cream cheese or thick sour cream.
