method
- Step 1 :For the Base - Grind all ingredients in a food processor until thoroughly mixed, leaving some texture to the nuts.
- Step 2 : Press into individual tart cases* so you have a thin crust. You will find that regularly dipping your fingers in a bowl of water helps with this.
- Step 3 : Place bases onto a mesh dehydrator sheet and dehydrate at 115 degrees F for two hours. They should now be firm enough to remove from the tart cases so you can continue to dehydrate them for a further six hours.
- Step 4 :For the Filling - Mix all ingredients in a blender until smooth.
- Step 5 :For the Glazed Red Onions - Mix all the ingredients together, place on a Teflex sheet and dehydrate for 12 hours.
- Step 6 :For the Cherry Tomatoes - Mix all ingredients and dehydrate for two hours in a flat container.
- Step 7 :For the Spinach - Pulse spinach, olive oil and salt in a food processor for 10 to 20 seconds until broken down.
- Step 8 :For the Lemon Thyme Cream Cheese - Blend cashews, water and probiottics in a mixer until smooth.
- Step 9 : Allow to sit in a glass bowl covered with towel in a warm place for 14 – 16 hours to culture.
- Step 10 : Add the remaining ingredients and refrigerate for four hours.
- Step 11 : Assemble and layer all the ingredients. Between each layer add some filling. Make sure to save some glazed red onions and cherry tomatoes for later.
- Step 12 : Dehydrate overnight and during the day, for anything up to 24 hours.
- Step 13 : Remove from the dehydrator and decorate with glazed red onions, cherry tomatoes and quenelle of lemon thyme cream cheese.
