Ingredients

Crust

  • 1 frozen or refrigerated pie crust thawed

Filling

  • 3 Shallots chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 8 oz Wild Mushrooms sliced
  • 1 cup Corn Kernels
  • 2 Carrots shredded
  • 1-2 teaspoons Fresh Rosemary chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Butter
  • 1/2 Cup Creme Fraiche
  • Salt + Pepper to taste

Topping

  • 4 oz Dry Mushrooms
  • 1 cup Boiling Water
  • 3/4 cup Gruyere Cheese shredded

Instructions

For Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit 

  2. Prick the bottom and the sides of the pie crust with a fork

  3. Place the pie crust on a large cookie sheet (to catch any drippings)

  4. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool 

Filling

  1. In a large rimmed pan, place the butter over medium heat 

  2. When the butter melts add the shallots, garlic, and carrots. Stir until softened

  3. Add the mushrooms and rosemary. Cook until softened. Add salt, pepper, and corn. Sautee for 4-5 minutes

  4. Add the creme fraiche and let this mixture dry out for 3-4 minutes. Check for seasoning and add more if needed

Topping

  1. Pour hot water over the dry mushrooms and let them stand for 5 minutes. When the mushrooms have softened, drain the water and squeeze them to remove the excess water 

Assembly

  1. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit

  2. Pour the veggie mixture into the pie crust 

  3. Top with the reconstituted dry mushrooms and the cheese

  4. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the tart is bubbly and top has browned
