Ingredients
  • One roll frozen puff pastry, thawed in fridge overnight or at room temperature for an hour
  • Three ripe tomatoes
  • Half package of Boursin cheese, about 75g
  • Six olives, sliced
  • One teaspoon butter, melted
  • Pepper
  • One egg, lightly beaten
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375 F (190 C) degrees. Unroll puff pastry and transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. With a small sharp knife, lightly mark the pastry about 1 cm from the edges to create a border. Don't cut all the way through the pastry, this is just to score an edge for the beautiful golden crust to come. Brush the entire pastry with butter.
  3. With your sharpest knife, slice tomatoes as thinly as possible. Arrange them in overlapping rows on top of puff pastry, staying within the scored edge.
  4. Crumble Boursin evenly over tart and then sprinkle the sliced olives. Season liberally with freshly ground black pepper.
  5. Brush the edges with egg. Bake tart for 25 minutes until edges are golden.
