ZUCCHINI AND HAKE IN PUFF PASTRY



Zucchini and Hake in Puff Pastry image

I was in Spain for Thanks Giving and I bought a cooking magazine called "Comer Bien" Great recipes. This is one of them. The original name of the recipe is "Hojaldre de merluza y calabacin" The recipe yields 4 portions; my daughter and I eat 2 one day and we had the other 2 the next day. It reheats very well and actually tasted even better the second day. You can substitute the hake for "your favorite" white fish.

Time 1h25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed (about 8 ounces)
All-purpose flour, for rolling out dough
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
1 small summer squash (about 6 ounces), cut in half lengthwise and thinly sliced diagonally
1 small zucchini (about 6 ounces), cut in half lengthwise and thinly sliced diagonally
Nonstick cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Roll the puff pastry out to a 12-inch square on a floured work surface. Brush lightly with the olive oil and sprinkle evenly with the cheese, thyme and lemon zest. Cut into 6 even strips.
  • Shingle alternating yellow and green slices of squash and zucchini along the length of each strip of dough making sure to leave half the dough strip uncovered and allowing the green and yellow skins to hang over one edge slightly. Fold the uncovered dough over the squash and pinch together at the two ends. Starting at one end, roll each strip into a spiral. Lightly press the rolled tarts into a muffin tin sprayed with cooking spray.
  • Bake until the crusts are browned and crisp on the bottom, the top is dry and crisp and the squash is tender and browned on the edges, about 40 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool slightly. Serve warm.
