Endive Tarte Tatin With Burrata Recipes

TARTE TATIN

Steps:

• To make the pastry dough, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine all the ingredients for the dough and mix at low speed until just smooth. Gather the dough into a ball (it will be quite soft), flatten to a thick disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• When ready to bake the tart, preheat the oven to 400 degrees and prepare the apples. Use 1 tablespoon of the butter to grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch tart pan with straight sides or a 9-inch cake pan. Sprinkle the bottom with 2 tablespoons of the sugar. Arrange the apples neatly in the pan, rounded side down. Sprinkle them with the remaining sugar and dot with the remaining butter.
• On a floured surface, roll the dough out into a disk just slightly larger than the tart pan. Cover the apples with the pastry, tucking the edges of the dough over the apples. Using a pastry brush, brush the surface of the dough with some of the egg yolk.
• Bake the tart in the middle of the oven until the dough is very lightly browned and the apples are just tender when poked through the dough with the tip of a paring knife, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let stand 5 minutes.
• Place a serving plate upside down on top of the tart pan. Using kitchen mitts, grasp the edges of the plate and the pan and quickly invert the pan. Remove the pan. Cut the tart into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature with vanilla ice cream.

ENDIVE TARTE TATIN WITH BURRATA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a lightly floured work surface and using a floured rolling pin, roll out pastry to a 12-inch square about 1/8-inch thick. Transfer to a sheet tray and keep refrigerated until ready to use.
• In a 12-inch high-sided ovenproof skillet, melt butter over medium-low. Add 2 tablespoons of the sugar and stir until mostly dissolved. Add endive, season with salt and pepper, and cook, turning occasionally, until coated in the butter and wilted along the edges, 5 minutes. Arrange endive cut side down, cover and cook until softened and golden, 10 minutes longer. Carefully flip over endive, sprinkle the cut side with the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar, then turn over again so they are cut side down in a single layer. Drizzle over lemon juice, scatter over chives, and season with salt and pepper. Top endive with the pastry, tucking the edges into the sides of the skillet. Prick pastry all over with a fork.
• Bake until pastry is puffed and deeply golden, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes. Run a knife along the edge of the pastry to loosen it from the pan. Place a serving plate over the pan. Using oven mitts, grip the plate and pan tightly together and swiftly flip over. Gently lift away the skillet and replace any endive that may have moved out of place.
• Cut tart into wedges and transfer to plates. Top each piece with some burrata, and garnish with chives and black pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.
