Bacon, Fig and Goat's Cheese Tart
Ingredients
1/2 roll puff pastry - thawed( I sued the other 1/2 for the tomato tart in the previous post)
6 black Mission Figs
goat's cheese
1 egg - slightly beaten for the egg wash
6 strips of bacon
rocket or watercress - I like the peppery taste with the sweet figs
Preheat oven to 200C
Simply cut a cross in each fig and press open with your fingers. Wrap the bacon around the figs. Place them on the puff pastry and brush the pastry with the egg wash. Bake in a hot oven until the pastry is cooked. Now add a little goat's cheese in every fig and pop it back in the oven to just melt the cheese. Toss some rocket or watercress over the top and enjoy!!

Nina, yum yum yum,...yet again!! Don't forget about my award to you: It is the friends award, please, come pick it up at my latest post!!! Why? You can read it there,....!!!!!
That is a little piece of heaven! I wish it was easier to get figs here. My produce guy says they get too damaged in shipment from CA to sell usually.
I love figs and this combination sounds REALLY good. Great presentation :)
More delicious tarts Nina...when is the next flight?????
I love these kind of tarts. So versatile and tasty too!
What's with all the wrinkle ads?! Are you trying to tell me something? LOL ;)
This is great, I love your tarts.
This sounds like a great combination!
This recipe sounds delicious! And your photo is amazing. I work with Chavrie fresh goat cheese (the pyramid-shaped kind) and the combination of the fig w/ the creamy tang of goat cheese and the salty (yummy) bacon is just great!
Dear Lord. Marry me. My fave things all in one. Yum.
Beautiful - I just want to eat that tart right up! Especially because it has bacon on it!
Gosh... I love figs!!!!
Always brilliant. I would be floored too. I have some puff pastry in the freezer. You are inspiring me with these 2 tarts. You need to do a book on tarts!
