Make it a dinner party to remember with these gourmet tarts. Parmesan pastry makes them extra special.

  1. For pastry, whiz flour, parmesan, butter and a pinch of salt in a food processor to combine. Add yolk and 2 tablespoons chilled water, then whiz until mixture forms a smooth ball. Enclose in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes, then roll out to 2-3mm thick on a floured surface. Use to line eight 8cm loose-bottomed tartlet pans. Chill for 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 200°C. Line tarts with baking paper and fill with pastry weights or uncooked rice. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove paper and weights and cool.
  3. Use a fork to mash salmon with parsley, mayonnaise, zest and juice. Season with salt and pepper. Divide mixture among the tarts, then top with a halved quail egg. Serve garnished with cress or parsley.
