Roasted Vegetable Galette
Servings: 2 small pies  
 


Roasted Vegetable Galette  

A galette is somewhere between a tart and a pizza with the vegetables exposed in the middle of a pastry crust. Galettes are easy, so you can make this last, keeping it warm en route to the picnic. But the galette is also delicious served at room temperature. You can make your own pie crust dough or buy the dough in prepackaged sheets.
 
 

 

INGREDIENTS

1 medium eggplant, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick pieces
4 large cremini or other wild mushrooms, caps only, sliced 1/4-inch thick
2 medium shallots, cut into a fine dice
1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 medium zucchini, sliced crosswise 1/4-inch thick
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
4 ounces herbed goat cheese, crumbled
1 tablespoon Asiago cheese
2 eggs
2 sheets prepared pie crust dough
1 teaspoon water
 



METHOD

Preheat the oven to 450°. Use two baking sheets or baking pans coated with DuPont SilverStone® non-stick. Set aside.

In a large, roasting pan coated with DuPont SilverStone® non-stick, toss the eggplant, mushrooms, shallots, red pepper, and zucchini with the olive oil. Season with salt, and pepper. Roast the vegetables for 12 to 14 minutes, stirring once or twice, until tender; set aside. In a mixing bowl, beat the goat cheese with 1 of the eggs and the Asiago, until well- blended.

Roll the pastry sheets out to 1/8-inch thickness. Arrange 1 pie crust on each baking sheet. Spread the cheese mixture on each crust, leaving a 2-inch border of dough. Place the roasted vegetables on top. Fold the dough to partially cover the filling, crimping to seal the edges. Mix the remaining egg with the water and then brush enough over the crusts to cover. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the crusts are golden brown. Let cool slightly and then wrap in foil to take to the picnic warm. To serve, cut into thin wedges.
