Preparation

Kitchen utensils

6 Fluted tart pans (about 4" in diameter), 1 Grater, 1 Rolling pin

Preparation steps

1.

For the dough, heap 9 ounces flour on the work surface, mix with ½ tsp salt, and make a well in the center. Add 1 egg and spread cold butter in pieces on top. Chop everything until crumbly, then knead quickly with your hands to form a smooth dough. Form dough into a ball and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

2.

Grease ramekins with remaining butter. Roll out dough thinly on a floured work surface. Line ramekins with it, forming a rim. Prick pastry bottoms several times with a fork, cover with baking paper, weigh down with dried legumes, and blind bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C / 350 °F for 10-15 minutes. Then take out, remove dried beans and baking paper, and let bottoms cool for 5 minutes.

3.

Meanwhile, for the topping, cut tomatoes into thin strips. Grate Parmesan cheese. Wash thyme, shake dry and pluck off leaves. Whisk remaining eggs with sour cream and stir in Parmesan.

4.

Pour egg mixture on the bases and cover with tomato strips. Crumble half of the feta on top, season with salt, pepper and half of the thyme and bake in a hot oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

5.

Along the way, wash asparagus, cut off woody ends and peel lower third of spears. Pull asparagus into thin strips with a peeler. Mix lemon juice with salt, pepper and olive oil and marinate asparagus with it. Cut remaining feta into slices.

6.

Remove tartlets, top with asparagus and feta, sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper, and garnish with lemon zest and remaining thyme leaves.
