Golden brown puff pastry tartlets meet roasted cherry tomatoes, which unfold their sweet and sour aroma. The whole thing is rounded off with a creamy sour cream and yogurt mixture, refined with Styrian pumpkin seed oil and fresh herbs. Crunchy pumpkin seeds provide the final crunch—a small work of art on the plate that not only looks good but also tastes delicious.
- Roll out the puff pastry and cut out circles using a round cookie cutter (approx. 8 cm Ø). Use the back of a small spoon to make a shallow indentation in the center of each circle – this creates space for the filling. Lightly score the edges, brush with beaten egg, and sprinkle the circles with coarsely chopped Steirerkraft pumpkin seeds. Then place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 200 °C (top/bottom heat) for approx. 15 minutes until golden brown.
- Then briefly fry the cherry tomatoes in a pan with a little olive oil until they take on a little color and release their aroma.
- For the pumpkin seed oil cream, mix sour cream with plain yogurt and a dash of Steirerkraft pumpkin seed oil until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Finally, fill the still-warm puff pastry tartlets with a little cream, top with the fried tomatoes, and sprinkle with fresh herbs and chopped pumpkin seeds.
This is my tip
These tartlets are an easy eye-catcher at brunch or as an appetizer. The lightly roasted tomatoes add sweet roasted flavors that harmonize perfectly with the nutty pumpkin seed oil cream.
