- Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Roll out the puff pastry, enough to cut out 4 circles about 12cm wide. Prick the centres all over with a fork, arrange them on baking sheets and spread 1 tbsp mascarpone on each. Fry the sliced wild or mixed mushrooms in butter, then stir in grated parmesan, leaves from 2 thyme sprigs and seasoning. Divide between the tarts and bake for 20 minutes.
- Softly poach the eggs and dress the watercress with olive oil, lemon juice and seasoning. To serve, top each tart with an egg and add a handful of the watercress.
Recipe from olive magazine, November 2010.
