Cheesy Asparagus Tart
This stunning recipe appears in my new cookbook, available on now from my store. The best part about this great recipe is the fun Turbo video we made for it...(apart from eating it of course, let’s not forget that bit!) It is quite divine if you have made the puff pastry yourself, but don’t be put off by that step. Go ahead and purchase the best puff pastry you can and make it anyway. But do put a note in your Thermomix diary that you are going to tackle the puff pastry, which actually also has a video!! Check it out!! We have upscaled....hope you’re loving it as much as we are!
