Reblochon Tarts With Bacon & Fingerling Potatoes
- 2 medium fingerling potatoes
- 4 slices bacon
- 1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- crushed red pepper flakes
- all-purpose flour, for rolling
- 1/2 lb cold all-butter puff pastry (we used 1/2 a box of Pepperidge Farm)
- 1/4 lb reblochon cheese, rind removed and cheese thinly sliced
- In a small saucepan, cover the potatoes with cold water and bring to a boil.
- Cook over high heat until tender when pierced with a knife, about 15 minutes.
- Drain, then peel and thinly slice crosswise.
- Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, cook the bacon over moderately high heat until crisp, about 5 minutes; transfer to paper towels.
- Cut the slices in thirds.
- Preheat the oven to 375u0b0F
- Pour off the bacon fat in the skillet and add the oil.
- Add the onion and cook over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until softened and browned, about 15 minutes; add water as necessary, 1 tablespoon at a time, to prevent scorching.
- Transfer the onion to a bowl; season with salt, pepper, & crushed red pepper flakes.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the puff pastry to an 11-inch square.
- Using a plate as your guide, cut out four 5-inch rounds.
- Transfer the rounds to the prepared baking sheet and prick them all over with a fork.
- Bake the rounds in the center of the oven for about 8 minutes, until puffed and lightly golden.
- Using the back of a fork, deflate the rounds and bake for about 4 minutes longer, until the pastry is just set.
- Top the pastry rounds with the onion, potato slices, bacon and cheese.
- Bake for about 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the pastry is browned.
- Transfer the tarts to plates; serve hot or warm.
