- Spread the San Francesco Prosciutto Crudo di Parma evenly over the puff pastry base.
- Add the cooked asparagus onto the ham base, distributing it evenly.
- Cut the mozzarella into cubes and arrange them on top of the asparagus.
- In a bowl, beat the eggs with the fresh cream. Add salt and pepper to taste and mix well.
- Gently pour the egg and cream mixture over the ingredients in the savoury pie.
- Brush the edges of the puff pastry with a little extra virgin olive oil.
- Bake the pie in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden and crispy.
- Remove the savoury pie from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
- Your puff pastry tart with asparagus, ham and mozzarella cheese is ready to enjoy! You can serve it as an appetiser, as a light main dish or as a delicious snack.
Enjoy!
