Description
Indulge in the savory flavors of a homemade Mushroom & Leek Galette with Puff Pastry. This easy-to-make dish features a flaky, golden-brown crust and a delectable filling of sautéed mushrooms and leeks, making it the perfect appetizer or main course.
Ingredients
– 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
– 2 leeks, thinly sliced (white and light green parts only)
– 2 garlic cloves, minced
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon water, for egg wash
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to a 12-inch circle.
3. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and leeks, and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Stir in the minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional minute.
5. Transfer the mushroom-leek mixture to the center of the puff pastry, leaving a 2-inch border.
6. Fold the pastry edges over the filling, overlapping as you go to create a rustic galette shape.
7. Brush the exposed pastry with the egg wash.
8. Bake the galette for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and flaky.
9. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
For a more indulgent version, you can add a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese on top of the filling before folding the pastry. This galette can also be served as a main course, accompanied by a fresh salad.
