Strawberry and rhubarb compote tartlet

Tartelette aux fraises

La fraise est surement le fruit que j’attends le plus à l’arrivée du printemps, on oublie les agrumes et on se réjouie des premiers petits fruits (les bonheurs simples, quoi !). Bon et puis vous connaissez aussi mon grand amour pour la rhubarbe et bien que l’association fraise-rhubarbe est archi-connue, je ne les ai jamais cuisiné ensemble. Cette faute est désormais réparée avec ces petites tartelettes cuites et crues avec une base de sablés bretons pas faits maison

Well yes because I don't know about you but here it's more than hot today so I want to turn on the oven… and then I'm a little lazy around the edges… so hop a packet of Breton shortbread in the cupboard and a little simple and fresh pleasure !!!

Eat immediately otherwise the dough will soak up the rhubarb juice !

    Nothing better than a light tartlet without baking in the oven (ideal for small Parisian kitchens like mine which do not have one), merci!

    How pretty your tartlets are. The first time I tasted rhubarb, it was by marrying it with strawberries, and since, I love this mixture ! 🙂
    Have a nice day Emilie !

    It’s a great idea to use rhubarb compote rather than cream., it’s lighter and fresher with a little tangy side! I adore!
