Ingredients:
1⁄2 sheet frozen puff pastry (17.3-ounce package), thawed
2 Tbsp butter
3 large leeks (white and light green parts only), chopped
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp salt
1⁄4 tsp pepper
1⁄2 bunch Swiss chard, stems removed and leaved chopped (about 2 1⁄2 cups total)
1 1⁄4 cups heavy cream or whole milk
3 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
Pinch of nutmeg
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 425° and position rack in bottom third of oven. Gather all the ingredients and equipment. Wash the produce and prepare it as detailed in the ingredients list.
- Roll out pastry on a floured work surface to 12-inch square. Transfer to a 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Trim overhang to 1 inch. Fold under; crimp edges. Cover; chill.
- Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add leeks and thyme. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover; cook until leeks are very tender but not brown, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Add chard; saute until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; cool.
- Whisk cream, eggs, egg yolks, salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg in a large bowl. Mix in cooled leek mixture. Pour filling into crust.
- Bake tart 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F and bake until filling is puffed and just set in center, about 15 minutes longer (this took my oven about 10 minutes longer). Transfer to rack; cool 10 minutes.
