 Chef's Tip:💬

• The dough should be firm otherwise tarts wont be crisp.If you wish,you can also add refined flour and the ratio would be Refined flour to whole wheat flour 1:1.
• Don't over roast the veggies,otherwise it would be soggy.we want veggies to be crisp.
• Bake the tarts till cheese melt en,overcooking will make the cheese brown.
• If you wish ,you can bake the tarts into disposable aluminium pie tarts,which are easily available in the market.
• Baking time may vary a bit oven to oven,So Keep a eye over it.
