Leek, Shallot And Goat Cheese Tart

  1. Sift the flour in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the salt and the butter. Using the paddle attachment, mix at speed 2 until the butter is incorporated.
  2. Add the egg and keep mixing, about 1 more minute.
  3. Add the water and mix until you get a crumbled dough, about another minute.

  5. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  6. On a floured surface, roll the dough until you have a 12 inch diameter circle. Place the dough in a 9-inch tart pan and crimp the edges
  7. Place a round of parchment paper inside the shell and cover with pie weights. Bake for 15 minutes, until lightly golden.
  8. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  9. Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet and add the leeks and the shallots. Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, until very soft.
  10. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs. Add the cream, mustard, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Whisk until blended, about 30 seconds.
  11. Spread the leeks and shallots over the tart shell using a spatula to level. Pour the cream and egg mixture over. Sprinkle with the goat cheese.
