Valentine's Day Dessert: Strawberry Galette

Rustic strawberry galette - Juicy, sun-kissed strawberries nestled in a flaky, golden crust create a delightful balance of sweetness and tartness. 

Combine flour, white sugar, and salt in a food processor.

Add cold butter cubes, and pulse for a few minutes until the mixture is crumbly. Pour in ice water.

Mix. Gently knead everything together until a dough forms.

Shape the dough into a small ball, then flatten it into a thick, disc-like shape. Wrap it up in cling film, and let it chill in the fridge for 30-40 minutes.

With a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a circle, roughly about 11 inches in diameter.

Cut around it and gently transfer the dough onto the baking tray lined with wax or parchment paper.

Lightly dust the center of the galette with cornstarch. Sprinkle the strawberries with 1 tablespoon of white sugar.

And gently fold the edges over the fruit. Press gently to secure the filling.

If you see any holes occurring, try to pinch the dough as well as possible to close them.

Brush the edges of the galette with egg yolk and sprinkle it with 1 tablespoon of brown sugar (or you can use less or omit the sugar entirely).

Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the crust turns golden brown. Let the galette rest and cool for 10-15 minutes.

Generously brush with yoru favorite jam.
