Beetroot and Shallot Tarte Tatin Recipe

Serves 4

Ingredients:

30g butter

6 shallot, peeled

2 tbsp brown sugar

1 tbsp red-wine vinegar

9 baby beetroot, cooked and halved, baby-beetroot leaves reserved, to serve

1 sheet buttered puff pastry

½ cup baby-beetroot leaves

½ cup ricotta salata or other hard salty cheese, shaved

Method:

Preheat oven to 200°C.

Heat butter over medium heat in 21cm frying pan with a metal handle. Add shallots and cook, turning, for 8-10 minutes, or until tender and golden. Add brown sugar and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until mixture begins to caramelise. Add vinegar and cook for 1 minute.

Carefully arrange beetroot in the bottom of the pan; top with a 26cm circle of pastry, slightly tucking in the sides.
