Mushroom marsala tart for IHCC

Diana Henry's mushroom and marsala tart is a luxurious response to the "meat-free" theme this week at I Heart Cooking Clubs. Thin, crisp pastry (I used bought butter shortcrust) and a creamy, eggy custard spiked with fortified wine and loads of lovely bosky mushrooms.

Completely delicious warm (not piping hot - it needs time to cool and set a little) or cold, this made a lovely dinner and very good leftovers for lunch the next day. It just needs a simple salad on the side.

As a mushroom lover, that shot of the slice absolutely bursting with mushrooms is really setting off my cravings!

Oh wow, Alicia, this looks seriously, seriously good - I'm especially loving the idea of spiking the custard with the marsala, which I never would have thought of, but which I bet is just amazing with the mushrooms. Great pick this week.

though i continue to think that mushrooms are disgusting, even i must admit that this looks scrumptious.
