Method

  1. Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Roll out the pastry to the thickness of a 20p coin and use to line a 23cm tart tin. Bake blind for 15 minutes. Cook the onion in a large knob of butter until softened, then add the garlic and kale and cook for a few minutes until the kale has softened and wilted. Mix in the olives and cool. Stir most of the cheese and the egg into the kale mix, then tip it into the tart tin. Sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top.
  2. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the pastry is crisp. Serve warm.

    Very nice. The kale is spinachy but with a bit more texture. One egg is enough even though it doesn't seem to be at the begining.

    I loved this. I didn't have the pastry so I subsituted it with pillsberry crosants(2 original rolls). It tasted yummy! I also had to subsitute the cheese. I used mozzerella(it melts easy) and parmesion(for flavor) instead.

    Easy and delicious - I added some anchovies to the top of the tart for extra saltiness

    really lovely and very easy. I struggle with kale because it's always so chewy, but this recipe is a star.

    'Seasonal' kale was nowhere to be found in my part of South London, so we substituted it for spinach which meant it was nice, but not incredible. I'll try again with kale!

    This was oh so scrumptious. Easy to make and a great vegetarian meal. Used black olives instead as I prefer them to green.

    I don't think Gruyere is vegetarian..?

    This was great! I made it vegan by replacing the egg with cashew cream cheese, and using daiya shreds to top it off. I also made my own vegan shortcrust pastry. So yummy! :)

    A real winner! I was also skeptical of just one egg, but that was really all it took. I did vary the greens (used swiss chard) and the amount of olives (doubled because I love them), but these tweaks were more a matter of preference and convenience than anything else.

    Had some kale to use up, and found this recipe. Honestly wasn't expecting much from it, but was persuaded by comments. It was sooooo good! A regular recipe in our household now while kale is in season. It works really well with goats cheese also, and taking a cue from Anima, I've tried using a few anchovies, but cooked in with the onion so they dissolve and add flavour. Either way it's great!

    If anyone knows where to source good vegetarian Gruyere I'd be so grateful to know too! Can't seem to find any which doesn't use calf rennet which is obviously not suitable for us veggies :(
