Ingredients

6 servings

1 3/4 cups Flour

1 cup + 2 1/2 Tbsp Butter, divided

Up to 1/3 cup Water, chilled

1/2 cup Onion, finely chopped

14 ounces Smoked Salmon, chopped

2 tsp Fresh Chives, chopped

1 clove Garlic, chopped

Combine all pastry ingredients in a food processor (mix flour and butter, then add water gradually while mixing).

Gather into a ball, cover with plastic wrap and chill 1 hour.

Saute onion until shiny in the butter.

Stir in salmon, chives, garlic, and basil. Cool.

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Roll out the dough to fit a 10" tart pan. Prick with a fork.
