250gms Maida
113gms Butter, cold and cubed
2tbsp Sugar
1/4th cup Milk
Brown sugar to sprinkle
120gms Strawberries, cut into pieces
2tsp Sugar
1tsp Cornflour
50gms Cream cheese
2tsp Sugar
2 drops of vanilla extract
1tbsp Pistachio slices

Instructions

The dough for the galette is handled just like a tart dough. Not to be overmixed or overworked.
Mix in the flour, butter, sugar and lastly milk.
The ingredients are mixed with a light hand and the dough is wrapped in a cling wrap and refrigerated for an hour or so.
For the filling , mix the cream cheese with the sugar and the vanilla and mix until smooth. Now toss in the sugar and cornflour with the strawberries. Again if you are using eggs , you can use one egg yolk with the cream cheese and vanilla.
Roll out the dough into a circle. keep the strawberries in the center . Put spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture over the strawberries.
Now the edges of the circled dough were kept free of the filling. Start turning the edges over the filling, just so the base doesn’t bend . we are not making a potli , so the center remains exposed.
Brush a little milk on the galette just before baking . Sprinkle some brown sugar and the sliced Pistachio.
Put it into a preheated over at 200 degree celsius for about 45 minutes or until done
Cut into slices and serve hot. You can put a dollop of crème friache on the top.
