Method

  1. 1

    Thaw the dough and shrimp according to the package instructions. Unfold the pastry and roll it out into a sheet of about 38 cm x 26 cm.

  2. 2

    Cut the pastry into 12 pieces. Score a border slightly under 1 cm wide around the edges of the pieces, making sure not to cut all the way through the bottom. Prick the centers of the pastry pieces with a fork. Brush the edges with beaten egg.

  3. 3

    Bake the bases on the lower rack of a 225-degree oven for 12–15 minutes until they are golden brown and fully baked. Press down the risen center of the pastry with a fork. Let cool.

  4. 4

    Fill the tartlets with Skagen just before serving. Distribute the drained shrimp on top. Garnish with red onion, chives, and lemon zest. Finish with a pinch of black pepper.
