Guest guest Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Kalamata Olive Tart 1 1/4 cups bread flour 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves 1 teaspoon Sea salt 1/4 cup warm water 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil , plus 2 tablespoons, divided 1 large onion, diced 1 bunch romaine lettuce, chopped coarsely 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves 2 eggs 3 tablespoons sour cream 1 1/2 cups pitted Kalamata olives Make a tart crust by combining the flour, the fresh thyme, and salt in a food processor. With the machine running, add the water and olive oil in a continuous stream. Continue processing until a soft dough forms. Cover with plastic and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Saute the onions over medium heat in the 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the lettuce and sauté until it wilts and most of the liquid is evaporated. Place the lettuce mixture in a bowl and add the thyme, the eggs, and the sour cream. Mix thoroughly. Roll or pat the dough into a circle about 12 inches across. Crimp the edges to form a crust and spread the lettuce mixture over the top. Smooth it to even it out, then sprinkle the pitted olives over the lettuce. Bake for about 30 minutes. This is delicious warm or cold. If served cold, it's excellent with fresh fruit and crusty bread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Hi, Thx. for posting this super recipe:) Had almost half of it before remembered to leave some for the hungry husband. Giving that I had just olives out of a can and added a bit of cream and 1 more tsp of salt to the dough, it was fantastic. Am sure it is going to be great cold too. Thx again and I recommend it to anyone who has the hour to spare for a great dish, Marika Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
