Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Prepare the tart shell and set it aside.

  2. Step 2

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

  3. Step 3

    Heat two teaspoons of the butter in a skillet and add the onions. Cook, stirring, until they are wilted. Add the beef and cook, stirring and breaking up any lumps with the side of a heavy metal spoon. Cook until the meat has lost its raw look. If any fat has accumulated, drain it off in a sieve and discard it.

  4. Step 4

    Add the remaining butter, the mushrooms, green pepper, celery, marjoram, salt and pepper.

  5. Step 5

    Combine the whole egg, egg yolk, cream, milk and chives or scallions in a mixing bowl and beat thoroughly. Add the meat mixture and stir to blend.

  6. Step 6

    Pour the mixture into the tart shell. Place a baking sheet in the oven. Put the filled tart shell on the sheet and bake 30 to 35 minutes or until the custard is set.

I made this with leek and ground lamb in place of the onion and ground beef,and used half and half in place of the heavy cream. I used the suggested recipe for the tart dough. This would be great picnic fare. At room temperature, the flavors all mingle nicely. It is a volume constrained recipe -- I added the ground meat mixture to the tart shell, then spooned the custard over it to make sure that things did not overflow.
