LEMONY RICOTTA ZUCCHINI GALETTE

 


This Lemony Zucchini Galette is everything you want to brighten
up your kitchen on a beautiful Spring Day!

This Galette is made with a three-cheese filling
 and an incredibly easy buttery pastry.

Absolutely Delicious!


Run outside and grab two Lemons and two Zucchinis from
your garden or from your neighbor's garden. :)


For the Galette crust.

Yes, you can do homemade if you want because it's your Galette.

I did say Easy Pastry :)


Time to open the doors and let the Spring into the kitchen.


Thinly slice up two Zucchinis.


Transfer the Zucchinis to a colander and sprinkle  
with some salt and then let them drain about 15 minutes.

Pat dry with a paper towel.

The key to a successful Galette is a filling that doesn't become dry
while baking. Salting the Zucchini helps remove water
so you don't end up with a SOGGY crust.


For the cheesy filling add to a bowl...

1/4 cup of Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup og Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup of Mozzarella Cheese
1 Tbsp of Olive Oil
1 Egg Yolk


Pinch of Salt & Pepper.


Give the bowl a mix.


For the Lemony part...

Zest up one Lemon into the bowl.


For more Lemon flavor...

The juice of one Lemon.


Now whisk away till the mixture is all combined.
Smells So Lemony Right Now!

Spring Has Sprung!


Place the Pastry onto a parchment covered baking sheet.


Using a spatula spread the cheese over the pasty dough
leaving a 1/2 inch border.


Start topping with the Zucchini rounds in any design you like.


Ta Da!


Gently fold over the pastry edges, pleating as necessary.

Brush the side of the pasty with some olive oil
and a little drizzle over the top.


Applause Please!

Off to a 400 degree oven to bake for
about 35 to 40 minutes.


Bake Away!


My timer is set because I can get distracted. LOL


Ta Da...
My Lemony Ricotta Zucchini Galette Is Done.


Slide this Galette on to a serving board because
it's time to EAT.


This savory Galette with it's flaky crust can be served in
a fat wedge as a main course or in smaller slices as a first course.

Galette can also be served in thin slices as an hors d'oeuvre.

However it is served, it's sure to be enjoyed by all.


Spring On A Plate And A Glass Of Lemonade.
Whats Not To LOVE...


Please have a bite.

It's rude to eat in front of you!

Enjoy!

P.S.

What is a Galette?

A Galette is different from a Quiche or a Tart. A Galette does not require
a custard filling or any special pans. It's simply a rustic, versatile
free form Pastry that can be filled with almost anything.

Have you ever tried a Fruit Galette because it's YUMMY too.

Get Your Galette On!

Next week is St. Patrick's Day...

 If you know, you know.

 It means
Corned Beef & Cabbage is cooking in your kitchen.

I say once a year is not enough for such an easy
Delicious Dish!


With The Luck Of The Irish Let's Get Cooking.


Load up your CrockPot with some 
Carrots, Onions and those Irish Potatoes.

Pour in some Beef Broth & Guinness Beer to cover the vegetables.

If there is some left over Guinness in the can
Guzzle it down like an Irishman.


Place the Corned Beef on top of the vegetables 
and dollop with some Irish Butter.


Place the lid on and cook on low for 6-8 hours.

Be sure to have some Animals and a Leprechaun 
keep an eye on it while it cooks. They will enjoy the fabulous Aroma


This Leprechaun has been doing the Irish Jig
right on this CrockPot.


About 25 minutes before it's done place the Cabbage in.

I like my Cabbage to be a bit crunchy.


Mr. Leprechaun said grab the Guinness, the
Corned Beef & Cabbage is done and its time to eat and party.


I truly need to make Corned Beef & Cabbage more often
because I Love It Soooo  Much!

Enjoy And Get That Irish Jig Going!
