two springtime side dishes

so a few weeks ago I was again craving potatoes, and my good friend Patty was going to Chile for a month and demanded that I come over and cook her something.
The funny thing was, that when I was biking over to her house, I saw her out walking...going shopping.  She told me to just let myself in and start cooking.
She lives in a Villa compound, she has a separate private home, this villa compound is like being in little Western World.
Anyways, I made her these two dishes, it was the week before Easter and these would be perfect Easter sides.  I also made a bread pudding...but I was less impressed with that, so I'm not going to post about it.
please don't judge me for not making my own puff pastry, yes I know how to make it, and I'll talk about that another time I guess.

Potato Tart
7-8 good sized white round potatoes, halved and thinly sliced
one package of puff pastry
parmesan cheese
1/2 red onion sliced
salt & pepper
fresh chopped parsley

boil the potatoes until they can be pierce with a fork, remove from water and dry on paper towels or kitchen towels
roll out the thawed puff pastry and cover with a layer of shredded parmesan cheese, leave a 6cm(2in) border
layer the cooled potatoes with the red onions prettily over the parmesan
top with more red onions, season with salt and pepper
turn the edges over to close the sides of the tart
bake at 200C for 15-20 min until the pastry is golden and browning on the edges
top with more fresh cracked black pepper and the freshly chopped parsley
enjoy

Braised Peas, Leeks and Little Gem Lettuce with Mint
ok...so I didn't alter this recipe at all! (although I'm sure it would taste even better with a healthy splash of white wine instead of water to wilt the lettuce)
