Delicious. I added some fried bacon pieces to the filling.
I have made this many times. Absolutely delish!!! Great to freeze to for quick lunches.
This is a great recipe. Made it for meat-free Monday and will definitely make it again. Handy if you already have caramelised onions in the fridge. I made the crust ahead of time so it was super quick to assemble.
Not sure if eveyone else used a deeper tart dish than me but i ended up with probably half of the egg and milk mixture left over. So i made three extra mini tarts, making more of each ingredient to use up the milk mixture and i still didnt use it all. It was also very sweet, maybe that was the sugar on the onions, or the base? Unsure, i havent made a polenta base before.
Overall, it was ok, but my partner and I both said we wouldnt make it again.
It also seemed to take so long to make.
Made this today after a freezer disaster left us with no meat in the house! I made a GF shortcrust base as I didn't have any polenta. Next time I would leave the sugar out of the onions, but we don't eat much sugar, so that may just be our taste. I too cooked the pumpkin in balsamic with a pinch of salt and also topped the tart with some pine nuts. Delicious. Hubby loved it! Thankyou

Made this for dinner and served it with a chilli jam (also on the recipe community). I think this would have been a little plain without the chilli jam, so highly recommend that. My husband and I both enjoyed this.
This is absolutely delicious!!! I made it with shortcrust pastry and as someone else mentioned, I also roasted my pumpkin with balsamic vinegar rather than the soy sauce.
Nice filling but myself and my 12yo daughter weren't fond of the polenta crust, on the other hand hubby and adult daughter enjoyed it - obviously just personal preferences.
As the "tip" said was possible I actually had egg mixture left, almost half in fact but I think that this is because the crust was just SO thick. Will try it again with normal shortcrust next time and see how. That goes.
This is very very yummy. I just made using traditional shortcrust pastry and was great
You could try milk or cream Elzbeth. Similar ratio to eggs with what you would do for a quiche mix. I personally haven't tried it so can't guarantee the same result.
