Method

  1. Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Whizz the flour and butter to breadcrumbs in a food processor. Add half the parmesan, seasoning and the egg and pulse to a dough. Wrap and chill while you make the filling.
  2. Toss the squash with a tbsp oil and lots of seasoning. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes. Cool while you roll out the pastry.
  3. Use a little extra flour to dust the work surface then roll out the pastry to a rough 30 x 20cm rectangle. Put on a clean non-stick baking sheet. Arrange the squash on the pastry leaving a wide 3 cm border. Dot over the cheese and scatter over sage and the rest of the parmesan. Bring up the edges of the tart to make a freeform shell. Glaze with egg or milk then cook for 30 minutes until crisp and light golden. Serve warm.

    I shall try this recipe, it's easy, quick to make for lunch or a snack, easy adaptable to what you've got in your store-cupboard & to your own particular taste, add what you like & omit anything that you don't like or haven't got to hand. Given it 5 stars for an impressive looking dish with few ingredients that can be altered as required. I shall add chestnut mushrooms, cooked with garlic, any left-over meats, shredded chicken sounds good, leave out the sage leaves, adding some oregano, chives & parsley. Smoked salmon, dill & cream cheese would be nice combination.

    I don't know what went wrong with this recipe but I couldn't even eat it which says a lot because I'm not a fussy eater. The pastry was horrible but in fairness I don't have much experience making pastry and although I followed the instructions maybe I messed that up? But even so I still tried to eat it and the blue cheese was so over-powering. I usually love blue cheese but it was just too much.

    Delicious! Made my own pastry as per the recipe but by hand as I don't have a food processor. Rich, crumbly and buttery! Worth the effort. I was light handed with the sage as it's quite a strong herb - only used it on half and added walnut pieces instead on other half which give it a lovely crunch. Would definitely recommend.
