STEP 1

Let’s get started by preheating the oven to a toasty 175°C (350°F). Take the unleavened puff pastry out of the freezer and let it defrost according to the instructions on the package. Once it’s ready, place it on a lightly floured surface.

TIPS: If you’re looking for recommendations on working with puff pastry and three different ways to defrost it, check out our informative articles: “How to Thaw Frozen Puff Pastry“, “How to Bake Frozen Puff Pastry in Oven“, and “Tips How to Make Puff Pastry Recipes“.

Now, it’s time to roll out the puff pastry into a square measuring 20 cm by 20 cm. If you want to be precise, grab a ruler to help you out.

TIPS. If cracks appear while working with puff pastry, simply moisten them with a little water and press them together with your fingers.

STEP 3

Using a pizza cutter and a ruler, cut the dough in half to create two equal rectangles measuring 10 cm by 20 cm.

TIPS. Don’t limit yourself to using just a pizza cutter to cut puff pastry; a sharp knife works just as well.

STEP 4

Stepping back 2 cm from each edge, cut the dough. Be careful not to cut through.

STEP 5

Take a fork and prick the middle of each rectangle. This will prevent the dough from puffing up too much.

STEP 6

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and transfer the rectangles onto it.

STEP 7

Pop the baking sheet into the preheated to 175°C (350°F) oven and let the tarts bake for about 10 minutes.

STEP 8

Take the tarts out of the oven and let them cool for a bit. Now, put some grated cheese right in the middle of each tart.

TIPS. Gently press the center of the pastry tart with a spoon. This makes more room for the filling.

STEP 9

Grab some slightly defrosted asparagus and lay 6 pieces on top of the cheese. Alternate the direction of the asparagus, so half of them go one way and the other half go the opposite way.

TIPS. Feel free to use fresh asparagus or green beans instead of frozen ones.

STEP 10

Give the asparagus a little brush of vegetable oil and sprinkle some dried marjoram on top for extra flavor.

TIPS. If you’re not a fan of marjoram, try using other dried herbs that suit your taste.

TIPS. A pastry brush specifically made for pastries can help evenly distribute vegetable oil over the filling or dough.

STEP 11

STEP 12

Brush the edges of each tart with the egg mixture you just made.

TIPS. If you don’t have a pastry brush, you can use the tip of a folded paper towel or simply brush the dough with your finger to apply the egg mixture.

STEP 13
