Step 2
Peel the shallots and cut them in half lengthways. Face them up on a baking tray with a slight drizzle of olive oil.
-
Step 3
Cook for 8–10 minutes and cover with cling film when out of the oven so they can steam slightly.

Line the tart cases with some greaseproof and place a teaspoon of butter and sugar in each of the tart cases. Place two shallot halves in each tin.
-
Step 6
Cover with the pastry and gently pinch in the sides.
-
Step 7
Cook at for a further 10 minutes or until the pastry is cooked and slightly brown.
-
Step 8
Take out of the oven when cooked, turn out each tart and place back on the tray.

Cover each tart with sliced Le Rustique Camembert and tarragon. Season each tart and bake for a further five minutes until the cheese has melted.
