Step by step recipe

1	Prepare and slice 100 g mushrooms, then set aside.
2	If not ready-rolled, roll out 200 g Puff or flaky pastry (pâte feuilletée) to a circle 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter. Transfer the pastry to a sheet of cooking parchment laid on a baking sheet. Preheat the oven to 410°F (210°C).
3	Spread 30 g cream over the the whole surface of the pastry, then season with salt and pepper.
4	Add 150 g Mushroom duxelles evenly.
5	Arrange the sliced mushrooms on top.
6	Finish by brushing the top of the tart with melted butter.
7	Bake low in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes.
8	Leave to cool, preferably on a wire rack.

Remarks

You can use olive oil instead of butter in stage 6, or – for a bolder effect – hazelnut oil.
