Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter with olive oil. Add the sliced leek and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet, along with the minced garlic and dried thyme. Cook the mixture until the mushrooms are tender and most of the moisture has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

  4. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to create a rectangle about 12x8 inches. Place the mushroom and leek mixture in the center of the pastry, leaving a border around the edges.

  5. Gently fold the edges of the puff pastry over the filling, creating a rustic, free-form tart shape. Brush the exposed pastry with the beaten egg to give it a lovely golden finish.

  6. Transfer the assembled puff pastry to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

  7. Once baked, allow the Mushroom and Leek Puff Pastry to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
