Lamp (diya) shaped savory tarts

So just before diwali I slipped and fell and my left wrist got twisted. However, my dear friend didn't care much about it and decided to throw a challenge, which was, to make something unique that will go with the theme of diwali.

After thinking for a few hours I decided to make lamp (diya) shaped savoury tarts and the end result made me jump in joy!



Ingredients for tart-
  • 1 cup plain flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4th tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup butter room temperature
  • 2 tsp fresh cream
Instructions-
  • Mix the dry ingredients together. Add butter and cream. Mix till you get a smooth mixture.
  • Wrap the dough with plastic n refrigerate for 20-30 mins.
  • Make small balls from the dough. Take lamp shaped molds and press the dough balls. Prick the base little so that it doesn't puff up while baking.
  • Keep little bit of dough aside.
  • Let the oven preheat at 200℃ while preparing the filling.


Filling-
  • For filling you can use any savory or sweet ingredients that you like.
  • I have chopped some spinach, mixed it with sweet corn, and bacon and stirred it in olive oil.  After that I have added bit of ricotta in it. 

Assembling the tart-
  •  Roll the remaining dough that you have kept aside. Cut  thin strips from it.
  • Pour the mixture into the tarts. Arrange the strips on top of it in criss cross style.
  • Bake it for 20 minutes and your lamp shaped tarts are complete.
