📝 Ingredients

• 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 5 tbsp unsalted butter
• 3 tbsp ricotta
• 3 tbsp water (or a little more if needed)
• 1/2 onion
• 8 oz crimini mushrooms
• 4 oz portobello mushrooms
• 1 1/2 tbsp butter (approx)
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 clove garlic
• 1/2 tsp thyme
• 3 tbsp ricotta
• 1 oz fontina
• 1 egg ((for egg wash - won't need all))
• 2 tbsp parmesan (approx)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Make the dough in the food processor by mixing the flour, salt and butter to form crumbs. Add the ricotta and water and pulse until comes together. Remove blade and bring the pastry together in a ball. Cover and chill until needed (you can make it a little ahead)
2. 2Slice the onions into quarter rings and slice the mushrooms, cutting larger slices in half.
3. 3Put 1tbsp butter and the oil in a medium skillet/frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onions and cook around 5 minutes until softened and just starting to caramelize.
4. 4Add the mushrooms, garlic and thyme along with the rest of the butter. Soften and cook until the liquid has largely evaporated, stirring regularly. Set aside.
5. 5Preheat oven to 400F/200C.
6. 6Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface in a circle approx 1/8in/3mm thick (it doesn't have to be perfect). Transfer to a lined baking sheet/tray.
7. 7Spread a thin layer of ricotta on the pastry leaving around 1 1/4in/4cm around the edge.
8. 8Add the mushrooms on top, spreading out evenly leaving the same edge without topping, then top with slices of fontina.
9. 9Fold in the edges, making pleats as you go, then brush with eggwash.
10. 10Sprinkle a little parmesan over top, including pastry, then bake until golden, around 20-25 minutes. Best served warm.
