Ingredients
FOR THE CRUST
- 1 cup flour
- 1 stick butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2-3 tablespoons very cold water
FOR THE FILLING
- 8 ounces cooked potato
- 10 ounces goat cheese
- 6 ounces shredded Asiago cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped rosemary
- 4 tablespoons sour cream or crema + more for serving
- 2 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder + more for sprinkling
- 1-2 red jalapeno peppers cut into rings
- Fresh chopped herbs for topping
Instructions
- Start the crust by adding flour to a large mixing bowl. Chop butter and add with flour, salt and 1 tablespoon fresh chopped rosemary. Hand mix until the mixture becomes coarse and grainy.
- Add in a little bit of water at a time and mix until it comes together into a nice dough. It will stick together into a ball and won’t stick to the sides.
- Spread the dough into a tart pan and press another tart pan over the dough to weigh it down. Set into the fridge, covered, about 1 hour.
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Bake the crust with both tart pans for 20 minutes.
- While crust is baking, to a mixing bowl, add potato, goat cheese, Asiago cheese, rosemary, crema, garlic, and a teaspoon of chili powder. Mix until the mixture is nice and creamy. If you need more sour cream, add in a bit to achieve a slightly creamy mixture.
- Spread the mixture into the crust and dust with more chili powder.
- Top with jalapeno slices.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove and cool slightly. Top with fresh chopped herbs and serve with sour cream!
