Puff Pastry Tomato Tart
Lots of lovely tomatoes & basil growing in the garden at the moment so of course I had to make this quick, yummy tart.
Ingredients
- 1 puff pastry thawed from frozen - serves two with a side salad
- 2 tbsp olive oil divided
- 1 pint baby tomatoes halved
- 1 tsp oregano - I used fresh sprigs and threw on top but remove before eating otherwise you end up with stalks in your teeth!
- sea salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste
- optional: fresh basil leaves, feta cheese (or cheese of choice), pesto
Method
- Preheat oven to to 180°C and line a tray with baking paper.
- Add the puff pastry to the lined baking tray. (I buy mine pre-rolled, but if you need to roll it, then roll into a small rectangle.)
- Brush the puff pastry with olive oil or pesto - I found using both makes the base a little soggy unless your pesto is on the dry side. Then add the tomatoes cut side down to the pastry and if using feta, roughly chopped feta thrown on top.
- Brush the tops of the tomatoes with olive oil, then sprinkle with oregano, sea salt, and freshly ground pepper.
- Fold the edges of the pastry up to meet the tomatoes. Then bake in preheated oven 20 minutes or until tomatoes are cooked and pastry is golden brown.
- Sprinkle with chopped basil and serve warm and enjoy!
