Tomato & Goat’s Cheese Tart

Tasty, quick & easy. Perfect for a week night dinner!

 40min

Ingredients:

• Puff pastry (block/sheet, 375-500g)
• Tomato purée (1/3 of a tube, ~2 tbsp)
• 4 large tomatoes, thinly sliced
• 125g soft goat’s cheese
• A handful of fresh basil leaves
• Salt, pepper & olive oil

Instructions:

 First preheat the oven to 200°C. Then, start by rolling out the block of pastry on a floured surface to fit your standard oven tray (or use ready-rolled pastry). Place on greaseproof paper in your chosen tray.

Spread liberally with tomato purée leaving about an inch round the edge for the pastry to rise. Add the sliced tomatoes on top overlapping slightly. 

Interleave the tomatoes with the fresh basil leaves and add the goats cheese on top in little dollops. Season and drizzle with olive oil.

Bake in the oven for 20mins until the pastry is golden brown and the tart looks ready to eat!

TIP: It can be equally tasty with different cheeses and other little things like olives or anchovies.
