Rose tart

I have seen these tarts while browsing through other recipes but never went down to checkout the recipe or even ingredients as I presumed that its going to be a little time consuming and demanding recipe and I delayed looking at it until I had to find something beautiful to make but with limited ingredients and time available at hand!

I was really surprised with the simplicity of the recipe and could not believe it would be so easy to make with just a bunch of ingredients . And to top it all it's not so high on calories either. What else one wants.
I wasn't very sure of the success of the results and did not take ample pictures for each step but would surely do so next time I can make this, but for now sharing what I have.

I had frozen pastry sheets in freezer and they came in very handy but don't worry if you don'y have them. just make the samosa dough (without salt) and roll it out in thin rectangular shapes and you should be good .

Ingredients:

2 small sized apples

1 tablespoon butter

1 tablespoon sugar

Pastry sheet - 3

1/2 tablespoon lemon juice

1 cup water

1 tablespoon cinnamon powder

Recipe:

Melt the butter in microwave for 2 minutes. Cut the apple into half and remove the core . Thinly slice the apple ensuring the size and width remain same for all slices as much as possible.

Add lemon juice and sliced apple to water in a bowl and heat in microwave for around 3-4 minutes. This will make apple slices easy to bend and shape while lemon will keep them from turning brown.

Thaw the pastry sheets. Take one sheet and spread it on a plate. Spread melted butter on top and sprinkle cinnamon powder and sugar . Now place apple slices one after other overlapping midway over next slice . Spread along entire length of the sheet. Roll the sheet along the width . Apply some butter on upper half .Again roll it from left towards right gently such that it makes a rose. Arrange on tart mold and bake in preheated oven for around 20 minutes.
