Who said a savory tart had to be complicated to smell like a Sunday meal? This rustic potato and turkey bacon tart keeps the rustic spirit of the classic, but in a simpler, cleaner, and frankly practical version for a hassle-free dinner.
Ingredients :
- Shortcrust pastry — It serves as a crispy base and supports a fairly dense filling. Choose all-butter for a more crumbly texture, or make homemade pastry if you have time; in any case, prick it to prevent it from puffing up under the potatoes.
- Potatoes — They provide the softness and heartiness of the tart. Choose firm or all-purpose potatoes, like Charlotte or Monalisa, because they hold up better in slices and don’t end up as mash.
- Turkey bacon — It brings the smoky, salty note that gives depth to the filling. Quickly fry it in a pan to concentrate its flavor, and replace it if needed with smoked chicken cubes.
- Onion — It rounds out the dish with a slightly sweet mildness after cooking. Slice it finely so it melts into the filling rather than remaining in too prominent pieces.
