How to Make Asparagus Ham And Mascarpone Tart
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cut each puff pastry sheet into four equal squares. Lightly score a 2.5cm border around each square, leaving the center for the filling.
- Place the pastry squares on the prepared baking sheets and chill for 15 minutes.
- Melt butter in a small frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until softened.
- Finely chop the ham in a food processor. Add the softened onion, Dijon mustard, and mascarpone cheese. Pulse until well combined.
- Season the ham mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
- Spread the ham and mascarpone mixture evenly within the scored border of each pastry square.
- Arrange the asparagus spears on top of the filling.
- Brush the pastry borders with the beaten egg.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is heated through.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
