Savory Tarts (Filling with Spring Onion,Egg & POM)

Though this month is a season for baking but that dosenot completely mean  sweet ones alone,Right?These are perfect savory ones and a very simple and tasty ones as well.The true love for these tarts is that its got the rich hard boiled cut eggs,sweet taste of spring onion and crunchy bites of POM seeds and a cheesy topping!! Isn't it perfect?There are some recipes which have clicked to be a big hit in my family and this one is among them .This recipe is not taken from any websites ,magazines or TV shows;a true experimentation and am very happy that it turned out good and all like it :-)




Ingredients
For crust
puff pastry sheet 1 thawed

for filling
Green onion 10-12 stalks with bulb
onion 1 medium sized
garlic 3 cloves sliced
egg hard boiled 4
chilly powder 1/2 tsp
pepper powder 1/4 tsp
garam masala 1/4 tsp
turmeric powder 1/4 tsp
coriander powder 1/2 tsp
salt
oil 2 tsp

for topping
pomegranate seeds 1/2 cup
shredded cheese 1/3 cup


Method
-Thaw the pastry sheet as per packet instructions and cut into square pieces.(I got 9 pieces from one sheet)
-Wash and chop all veggies keep aside.Peel the hard boiled eggs and cut into small pieces.
-Heat oil in a pan and saute onions till translucent.Add in the garlic and green onions and keep tossing till its cooked.
-Add in all spices as listed and toss till it forms a masala.Put off the flame and mix the cut eggs into the masala.
-Line a muffin tray with oil and place each pieces of pastry sheet in such a way that it remains like a baking cup or a cup liner sticking to the edges.


-Spoon each cup with masala and top it with shredded cheese and Pomegranate seeds.Repeat for all cups.


- Place it in the oven and bake at 400 degrees for 15-16 minutes.
-Cool on wire rack for 10 minutes and serve hot!

Servings ~ 9 savory tarts with one sheet



NOTES-
* You can omit the pomegranate seeds if you wish too,but it is still tasty.
* You can replace eggs with paneer or soya for vegan recipe.
