Potato Anchovies Tart
A different take on the Pissaladiere, the anchovies and onion tart from the Provence. In this dish, potatoes are the stars with anchovies in a supporting role. Unlike the Pissaladiere it doesn’t require pastry.
Potato Tart
It’s easy to make and the leftover slices can be reheated perfectly. In fact, some swear that a day old torte tastes even better. A typical dish from the Trentino Alto Adige region in Italy. Serve it alongside salads, grilled meats.
Leek and Bacon Quiche
Quiche aux Poireaux avec Lardons is a popular recipe in France. Paired with dressed salad greens, it makes for a very satisfying light lunch or dinner. A real treat for a summer picnic. A good quality ready-made shortcrust pastry will considerably shorten the preparation time.
Quiche Provençale
An enticing recipe, where you can get creative. A shortcrust pastry filled with eggplant, tomato, zucchini, red and green peppers, potatoes, onions, and Gruyère cheese. A tossed green salad, a crusty country bread, and a dry white wine or rosé are all you need to accompany this traditional dish from the South of France.
Onion and Gruyère Tart
A perfect recipe for a light lunch or an appetizer. Tarte à l’Oignon et au Gruyère is a melt-in-the-mouth dish: light, delicious and with character. If you don’t find Gruyère cheese in your part of the world, you can use mature Swiss cheese, albeit it is not a full substitute.
Salami and Mozzarella Tart
A delicious and easy to prepare tart which can be served warm or cold. I cut the tart into squares to reveal the colorful layers.
Tuna, Red Pepper and Zucchini Tart
I was inspired to make this tart after a raid on my kitchen cupboard, freezer and a quick trip to the grocery store. For this tasty dish, I use only good quality canned tuna.
Endives and Shrimp Tart
A tart just right for a warm summer’s night. Coating shrimps in the endives caramel sauce creates a contrasting harmony, salty and sweet. In France it is called Tarte aux Endives et Crevettes, a posh tart, effortlessly made. Dead easy and amazingly delicious.
