Ingredients :
For baskets / tarts :
1 ½ cups flour
4 tbsp ghee
½ cup milk
salt to taste
For filling :
200 gm button mushroom
200 gm spinach
1 tbsp flour
3 tbsp milk
2 tbsp cheese (grated)
1 tbsp pepper
3 tbsp butter
salt to taste
Method :
For making filling :
Chop the spinach and the mushrooms into small pieces. Heat the butter and add
the flour and the milk and stir continuously taking care that no lumps form.
Mix in the chopped vegetables, salt, pepper and cheese and cook on a medium
heat for 5 minutes.
For making tarts :
Kneed all the ingredients to a soft dough, adding a little more milk, if required.
Divide into 7-8 portions and shape into round baskets or use a bowl or a mould
to give the tarts any shape you like.
Bake in an oven at about 150ºC for 10 minutes and then remove the tarts
or baskets one at a time from the oven with the help of mittens. Fill each of
the baskets with a portion of the prepared mushroom spinach mixture and bake
once again, reducing the temperature of the oven a little. Bake for 5-7 minutes
or until the baskets are light brown in colour.
