Courgette (Zucchini), Asparagus and Feta Cheese Galette

Spring is here at last and so my cooking habits shift from soups and stews to quiches, tarts, and summer pies. I have had a bit of a gallete obsession recently (though unfortunately haven't blogged some of my wonderful creations) and wanted to make one that felt very in season. So I opted for courgettes and asparagus, and added in some feta cheese. Yum!

Caramelised Garlic and Goats Cheese Tart

This tart is adapted from Yotam Ottolenghi's vegetarian cookbook plenty. I bought this a while ago but have been put off by the need for specialist ingredients for many of the recipes. This tart is one of the few exceptions in the book and requires very few ingredients. My only complaint about this recipe is that it uses all the cloves from 3 bulbs of garlic which takes quite a while to peel! In fact, I have recommended 3 - 4 heads of garlic as I found 3 wasn't enough for my tastes. It can be served warm or cold, but as usual with this sort of tart, it tastes better (in my opinion) cold.
