Start by thoroughly rinsing and then chopping the 4 yellow plums into small cubes. Next, finely chop 8 basil leaves. Combine the plums and basil in a saucepan, cover with water just enough to submerge the ingredients, and bring to a boil. Allow the mixture to cook down into a compote. Once done, remove from heat and lightly mash if needed, then stir in 1 teaspoon of agave syrup. Set aside to cool.<\/p>\n
Cut 6 to 8 circles from the 2 brick pastry sheets, each circle should be 0.5 to 1 cm larger than your tart molds. Lightly brush each circle with some olive oil. Layer 3 to 4 circles into each tart mold. Pre-bake the bases in an oven preheated to 220\u00b0C (428\u00b0F) for 3 minutes. Remove from the oven.<\/p>\n
Melt 30 grams of chocolate in the microwave. Mix in 2 tablespoons of cream until you achieve a smooth ganache.<\/p>\n
Spoon a layer of the ganache into the bottom of each pre-baked tartlet shell. Top the ganache with the plum and basil compote.<\/p>\n
Bake the tartlets for an additional 20 minutes at 220\u00b0C (428\u00b0F). Allow to cool before carefully unmolding.<\/p>\n
Serve each tartlet drizzled with the remaining 2 teaspoons of agave syrup and garnish with small basil leaves to enhance the presentation and flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n
