Category: Tarts
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 pound asparagus, ends trimmed, cut into 4- to 5-inch pieces
1 (14-ounce) sheet puff pastry, defrosted if frozen (we like Dufour brand)
1/2 cup whole milk ricotta
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 large egg yolk mixed with 1/2 teaspoon water

Instructions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
Heat olive oil in a saute pan. Add shallot and saute about 1 minute. Add asparagus and cook over medium-high heat until asparagus is crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Roll out pastry to a 10 x 16-inch rectangle on a lightly floured piece of parchment paper. Transfer pastry and paper to a baking sheet.
Spread ricotta evenly on pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around the edge. Spoon asparagus mixture evenly over ricotta. Sprinkle cheese over all. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Brush edge of the tart with egg and water mixture. Bake until pastry is golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool slightly and serve warm.

Cut into 8 (4 x 5-inch) pieces.
