Finally the
weekend is here and I'm just planning to relax. Tonight we will be
going to a garden party at a friend's place and tomorrow there will
be plenty of cooking in preparation for the next week. Cooking is a
way to relax for me, one of the best, at least if I'm not trying
anything annoyingly complicating... It will be a busy week ahead and
I want to prepare a few things for it already, as I'm planning to
live healthily and economically during the week. I think that it will
make me feel better among all the stress. But no stress now, the
sun is shining here and there's a swiss chard tart. I made quite a
cheesy and oniony swiss chard tart, which was very nice and summery.
Here is the recipe for it.
Ingredients
250 g swiss chard
1 onion
2 garlic cloves
Olive oil
½ tsp salt
Sprinkle of ground
black pepper
Fresh oregano
250 g shortcrust
pastry
250 g grated
cheddar
Method
Cut the swiss
chard into pieces and also chop the onion into half rings and the
garlic finely.
Cook the onion and
garlic in a pan in olive oil for a couple of minutes and also very
briefly wilt the swiss chard in the pan. Season the mix and take off
heat.
Roll the pastry
out and place it into a pie tin. Put the onion, garlic and swiss
chard mix on top of it and cover with cheese.
Bake in the oven
at 200 C for about 15 minutes until the pastry has cooked and the
cheese is nicely golden brown.
Enjoy and have a
great weekend everyone!

I love growing swiss chard and I like eating it too. What a lovely recipe and perfect for a greyish day. Enjoy the garden party, hope the weather is better where you are as its overcast here.
ReplyDeleteSwiss chard is very nice, although I don't have it that often. It was sunny here, but starting to get cloudy now, it shouldn't rain though.
