Tarte Fine aux Tomates

Ingredients

Puff pastry

1 sheet, thawed

Tomatoes

4-5 medium, sliced

Goat cheese

4 ounces, crumbled

Fresh basil

1/4 cup, chopped

Fresh thyme

1 tablespoon, chopped

Olive oil

2 tablespoons

Salt

to taste

Black pepper

to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet to fit a baking sheet. Transfer the pastry to the baking sheet, making sure to leave a small border around the edges.
3. Prick the pastry all over with a fork to prevent it from puffing up too much during baking.
4. Layer the sliced tomatoes evenly over the pastry, slightly overlapping them for an appealing presentation.
5. Sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese, chopped basil, and thyme evenly over the tomatoes, allowing their flavors to meld beautifully.
6. Drizzle the olive oil over the tart and season generously with salt and pepper for added depth.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the tomatoes are slightly caramelized and tender.
8. Remove from the oven and let the tart cool for a few minutes before slicing it into wedges.
9. Serve warm, garnished with additional fresh herbs if desired.
