Watch our Simply Better brand ambassador Neven Maguire prepare this delicious Irish Tomato & Pesto Puff Pastry Tart using our new Simply Better Irish Grown Tomkin & Tomistar Tomatoes from Grantstown Nurseries in Co. Waterford. Shop the ingredients in your local Dunnes Stores and find the full recipe below:
Ingredients (Serves 8) 1 Pack of Simply Better Ready To Roll All Butter Puff Pastry, thawed 3 Tbsp. Simply Better Italian Basil Pesto alla Genovese with PDO Genovese Basil 250g Simply Better Irish Tomkin & Tomistar Tomatoes, sliced 125g Cream Cheese Fresh Basil Leaves, to garnish Sea Salt and Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Method 1. Preheat the oven to 200°C Fan (425°F/Gas Mark 7). 2. Dust a work surface with flour and roll out the puff pastry into a large rectangle measuring about 45x30cm/18x12in and about 3mm thick. Lightly score a 1cm border around the edge of the pastry using a sharp knife and transfer to a baking tray. 3. Smear a layer of cream cheese inside the pastry border, then cover the cream cheese in a layer of basil pesto. Arrange the sliced tomatoes on top and season with a little salt and pepper before transferring to the oven to bake for about 25-30 minutes until the pastry has puffed up and become golden. 4. Garnish the puff pastry tart with the fresh basil leaves and serve straight to the table.
Brown scones are full of roughage and great for breakfast. And here is a good tip: you can make this mixture, shape the scones and freeze them. You can then cook the scones straight from the freezer to the oven – just give them an extra 5 minutes and make sure the scones are golden brown and well-risen.
Ingredients
Rapeseed or sunflower oil, for greasing
225g (8oz) self-raising flour, plus extra for dusting
225g (8oz) coarse wholemeal flour
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
50g (2oz) wheat bran
25g (1oz) butter, diced and at room temperature
1 tsp light muscovado sugar
300ml (½ pint) buttermilk, plus a little extra if necessary
Method
Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F/gas mark 7). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and grease the paper with a little oil.
Sift the flours, baking soda and salt into a bowl. Tip in the bran left in the sieve and stir it in with the wheat bran. Rub in the butter with your fingertips until it is evenly dispersed. Stir in the sugar.
Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and add the buttermilk and golden syrup. Using a large spoon, mix gently and quickly until you have achieved a smooth, not-too-sticky dough. Add a little more buttermilk if necessary, until the dough binds together without being sloppy.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 2.5cm (1in) thickness and cut into rounds with a 6cm (2½in) plain cutter. Arrange on the lined baking sheets and bake for 10-15 minutes, until golden brown and well-risen.
Serve with butter or lightly whipped cream and strawberry jam.
