Tartlets are a small basket of dough, which, in turn, can be fresh, yeast or pirozhkovym. It already depends on the preferences of the hostess and her culinary skills. The filling is amazing with its variety. Often tartlets are made with caviar, but there may be varieties with vegetable filling or meat, as well as with sweet stuffing, which is served as a dessert. They are convenient for decorating the table due to its shape, as well as the brightness of the components of the filling. But tartlets with caviar are always very interesting.

To tartlets with caviar turned tender and just melted in the mouth, you must be able to properly prepare the dough. It should not be too brittle, but too dense and heavy. It will require the following components: wheat flour 250-300 grams, eggs - 2 pieces, margarine or oil - 100 grams, sour cream (from 15% fat content) - 100 grams, 5 grams of table salt. Beat the eggs and salt with a mixer in a foam, add sour cream and mix everything until smooth. In the bowl, pour the sifted sift through a fine-mesh sieve (then the dough will be lush and lighter), add grated margarine and mix to a uniform consistency (the same size will be obtained). Gradually pour in the liquid ingredients and mix the dough first with a mixer, and when it becomes steep enough - hands. The dough should be well molded, so if necessary, add more flour. Crumble and leave it to stand for a while (at least 15-20 minutes) on the table at a temperature of 18-26 ° C. This is necessary for better swelling of the gluten, which will make it more elastic.

Preparation of tartlets involves the use of metal molds, which are practically in every house. First, roll out the dough with a thickness of not more than 3 mm and cut out the circles with improvised means (using the rim of the cup) in size 1-1.5 cm larger than the wide circumference of the basket. This is done so that when the dough is placed inside the mold and when there is a grinding along the contours, a rim is formed, which will be the side walls of the tartlets. The molds are preheated in the oven, and afterwards we put them out with dough pieces. We put it on the grate and bake in a oven at 180 ° C for 10-17 minutes until golden brown. Remove the baskets and allow them to cool for 4 minutes. We turn and extract the finished tartlet.

Careful housewives prepare tartlets for storage. And to prepare a stuffing is a matter of a few minutes. So you will always have a beautiful decoration of the dish, and with the flavors you can experiment. If there is no time to spare and cook tartlets, then you can buy ready-made semi-finished products in the store.

To prepare tartlets with red caviar, we need the following products for the filling: red caviar - 150 grams, eggs - 2 pieces, cream cheese (or any rennet) - 200 grams.
