Upside Down Curry Chicken Tart
SERVES TIME
4-6 1 hour
INGREDIENTS
- For the pastry:
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 1 egg, beaten
- For the chicken curry filling:
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 Homiah Malaysian Red Curry Kit
- 1 can coconut milk
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- Salt and pepper, to taste
METHOD
- We’ll get started on the chicken curry filling first. Heat some oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, cook until softened before stirring in the paste from Homiah’s Red Curry Spice Kit.
- Then, add the shredded chicken, coconut milk, and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until heated through. Don’t forget to season with salt and pepper!
- Next, we’ll work on the pastry! Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C), line a baking sheet with parchment paper and pour the curry chicken filling evenly over the parchment paper.
- Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface, cut to a size that will cover the filling. Place the rolled-out pastry over the chicken curry filling. Brush the top of the pastry with the beaten egg, then bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
- Let the tart cool slightly before inverting it onto a serving plate. And your afternoon snack or appetizer is ready to be enjoyed!
