Cherry tomato tart slices

Serves: 8
Cooking Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

  • 400g puff pastry
  • 120g basil or coriander pesto
  • 250g cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 10ml (2 tsp) olive/avocado oil
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

2

Roll out the pastry to a rectangle of about 35cm x 25cm.

3

With a knife, make a small indent around the rectangle to create a border of about 1,5cm. You will now have a smaller rectangle within the pastry.

4

Spread the pesto evenly over the smaller rectangle. Scatter the tomatoes over the pesto, drizzle with the oil and season.

5

Brush the border of the pastry with the egg and bake until the pastry border is golden and the tomatoes soft, about 20 minutes.

6

Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Cut into small squares and serve.
