Ingredients

  • 1 roll or block puff pastry
  • ½ medium (¾ cup) sweet potato, cubed
  • 150 g (5 oz) mushrooms (I used oyster mushrooms but any are fine), thinly sliced
  • 15 g (1 tbsp) salted butter
  • 2 shallots, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tsps herbs de provence
  • 2-3 tbsp cranberry sauce
  • 100 g (3.5 oz) brie
  • 80 g (⅔ cup) gruyere or cheddar cheese
  • 4 eggs
  • 120 ml (½ cup) double / heavy cream
  • 2 pinches nutmeg

Instructions 

  • In a frying pan, heat a little olive oil over a low-medium heat. Add the sweet potato cubes and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring often, until they begin to soften.
    1/2 medium sweet potato
  • Add the mushrooms, shallots, butter, herbs and garlic to the pan. Continue to saute the vegetables for a further 5-10 minutes until the sweet potato cubes are soft and the mushrooms are deeply browned.
