Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C.
  • Divide butter and sugar between two small ovenproof blini pans and heat until golden-brown caramel forms.
  • Add a sprig of thyme and the shallots to each pan.
  • Cook the shallots for 3 to 4 minutes until they begin to brown.
  • Crumble the soft goats' cheese over half of the pastry on a floured surface.
  • Fold the pastry over the cheese and roll it out to a 5mm thickness.
  • Cut two circles of pastry slightly larger than the pans.
  • Cover each pan with a pastry round and tuck the edges around the shallots.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until golden, then remove to cool slightly.
  • Whisk honey, oils, and lemon juice with seasoning to create the dressing for the cress and lettuce.
  • Grill the firm goats' cheese slices under high heat for 2 minutes until golden.
  • Invert the tartes onto plates and top with grilled cheese and dressed salad.
