Have you ever heard of these? If not, please let me explain.
A galette is basically a mixture of meat, vegetables, or fruit encased in a circle of pastry. The pastry, which can either be a yeast dough or a pie crust, is pulled up and around the stuffing and pleated, pinched, or otherwise cajoled into an upper-crust of sorts. We've made galettes twice now, once filled with ground turkey and a bunch of other veggies, and tonight with an Indian tikka masala filling. It was delicious both ways.
I made two, so we can have some for lunch tomorrow!
Picture from Honeyflake. She used a yeast dough. We used pie crust. Speaking of which, I'd like to make an apple pie galette. Or a juneberry galette!
Oh, my goodness, Kara. You are just too good for words! I am looking at this -- you used Indian tikka masala filling -- WHAT?! I have no idea what that is. My cooking skills are stretched by casseroles.

Haha, like I said today, the sauce was from a jar. :) It's really good.

Our's didn't look anything near as good as this, though.
