Broccoli Rabe Tart

Broccoli Rabe Tart

Broccoli rabe works so nicely in a tart like this as it doesn’t get lost; it stands up for itself flavour-wise among the other ingredients. This would also work well as more of a “spanakopita”, where you could just use lots of shredded broccoli rabe in place of the other vegies. Either way, this is another example of the versatility of this wonderful vegetable.

  • Lay one sheet filo pastry in dish and brush roughly with olive oil.

  • In separate bowl, whisk eggs, mustard and paprika together with a couple of pinches of salt.
  • Stir in grated cheese and tip evenly over rest of ingredients.

  • Bake for around 20 mins, or until egg is cooked through.
