These fuzzy green-topped tarts look cute and taste the bomb.
Ingredients (9)
- 2 sheets ready-rolled shortcrust pastry
- 125g light cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives
- 100g chopped ham
Seaweed topping

- 1 head bok choy, very finely sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon caster sugar

1.Preheat the oven to 190°C.

2.Use a 7cm-cutter to cut 12 rounds from each pastry sheet. Use them to line two 12-hole patty pan trays (each hole should be 6cm across). Refrigerate for 15 minutes.

3.Place cream cheese, mayonnaise and eggs in a food processor and process to combine. Transfer to a jug, add the chives, then season to taste with salt and pepper.

4.Divide the chopped ham between patty pans, then fill with the cheese mixture and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until set.

5.Meanwhile, for the seaweed topping, heat the vegetable oil in a large saucepan over high heat. When very hot, deep-fry the bok choy for 30 seconds or until crisp. Drain on kitchen paper and allow to cool.

6.Sprinkle with the caster sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt, then arrange on top of the tarts just before serving.
