Recipe: Ricotta and Heirloom Tomato Tart

Admin · August 31, 2020 ·

courtesy of Winery Chef Carson Bibby of Nighthawk Vineyards Serves 10

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp sea salt flakes
  • 1/2 cup cold butter, chopped
  • 1 cup grated aged cheddar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups heirloom cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 2 Tbsp white balsamic vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp lemon extra virgin olive oil
  • Sea salt and cracked black pepper
  • 2 cups fresh ricotta
  • 2 Tbsp buttermilk
  • 1 tsp finely grated lemon rind
  • Fresh lemon thyme, to garnish
  • Fresh basil or pea shoots, to garnish

Method

To make the pastry, place the flour, salt, butter and cheddar in the bowl of a food processor and process until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add the egg and process until the pastry comes together. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm.

Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Grate the pastry into a 28-cm round tart tin and press into the base and sides of the tin. Prick the base with a fork and cook for 20-22 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Allow to cool completely.

Place the tomato, vinegar, oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mix to combine. Place the ricotta, buttermilk, lemon rind, salt and pepper in a separate bowl and mix to combine.

Spread the tart base with the ricotta mixture and top with the tomato mixture. To serve, sprinkle with lemon balm, basil, salt and pepper.
