Roasted Bell Pepper and Onion Tart

Here's a delicious specialty from The Gallic Kitchen in Dublin, Ireland, a small, bright patisserie with excellent sweet and savory goods.

Ingredients

1 small	red bell pepper
1 small	yellow bell pepper
2 tbsp	olive oil
1 1/2 cups	chopped onion
1	refriferated pie crust (half of 15-ounce package)
1 tsp	all purpose flour
1/4 cup	chopped fresh basil
2/3 cup	whipping cream
2 large	eggs
1/4 tsp	salt
1/8 tsp	pepper

Directions

1. Char peppers over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Wrap in paper bag and seal. Let stand 10 minutes. Peel and seed peppers. Cut into 1/3-inch-wide strips. 2. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and saute until just beginning to color, about 12 minutes. Transfer to bowl and cool. (Bell peppers and onion can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate.) 3. Preheat oven to 425F. Remove crust from box. Let stand at room temperature 15 minutes to soften. Unfold crust; peel off top plastic sheet. Press out fold lines. If crust cracks, wet fingers and push edges together to seal. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon flour over surface of crust. Place crust, floured side down, in 9-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom; peel off second plastic sheet. Fold crust edge in, forming double-thick sides. Pierce dough all over with fork. Bake until light golden, about 10 minutes. Cool crust. Reduce oven temperature to 400F. 4. Arrange onion in crust. Top with bell pepper strips. Sprinkle with basil. Whisk cream, eggs, salt and pepper in medium bowl to blend. Pour custard over vegetables. Bake tart until custard sets, about 20 minutes. Cool tart 5 minutes in pan on rack. Remove pan sides. Cut tart into wedges and serve warm. Serves 8.
