Brussels Sprouts Tartine
Description
This recipe for Brussels Sprouts Tartine begins by slowly caramelizing thinly sliced sweet onions and garlic in unsalted butter until golden and deeply flavorful. Separately, Brussels sprouts, trimmed and sliced, are sautéed in olive oil to achieve a slightly crisp, tender texture with seasoning of kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper.
Sourdough bread slices are toasted in the oven twice to develop a sturdy, crunchy base. Grated Havarti cheese tops the warm toasts and melts before layering on the caramelized onions and Brussels sprouts. Spritzing fresh lemon juice and sprinkling freshly grated Parmesan cheese finish the tartines with brightness and umami depth.
These tartines serve well as snacks, light lunches, or elegant starters, combining tender caramelized vegetables with crisp bread and creamy, melted cheese. The lemon addition cuts through richness, balancing flavors for satisfying bites.
Ingredients
- 1 onion thinly sliced, sweet
- 1 garlic minced, clove
- 1 tablespoon butter unsalted
- ½ pound Brussels sprouts stems removed and sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- kosher salt
- black pepper freshly cracked
- 4 lices sourdough bread
- 6 ounces havarti cheese freshly grated
- 1 lemon thinly sliced
- Parmesan Cheese for sprinkling, freshly grated
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Heat a skillet over medium-low heat and add the butter. Add the onions and garlic with a pinch of salt and stir. Cook, stirring often, for 20 to 30 minutes, until the onions start to caramelize. Once they become golden brown, remove them from the heat.
- To make the brussels, heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. (You can do this in a separate skillet while the onions are caramelizing, or do it after in the same skillet!) Add the brussels with pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the brussels start to crisp up.
- Place the toast slices on the baking sheet. Bake them for 10 minutes, then flip and bake for 10 minutes more. Add the grated Havarti cheese on top and return them to the oven just until the cheese is melty.
- Remove the toasts and top with the caramelized onions. Top with the brussels sprouts. Spritz with a wedge of lemon, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and serve immediately.
