Pesto and Feta Tart

The perfect accompaniment to summer picnics.

Ingredients:

  • Filo pastry

  • Small jar of basil pesto

  • 4 large tomatoes, cut into slices

  • Feta

  • Fresh basil leaves

  • Handful of pine nuts

  • Olive oil

Instructions:

  • Flatten out a sheet of shop-bought filo pastry. Use a knife to indent a 1cm wide border around each side.

  • Spread basil pesto across the inner rectangle, keeping the border free.

  • Arrange the sliced tomatoes over the pesto so that they overlap slightly.

  • Brush the border of pastry with olive oil. Sprinkle the tomatoes with a touch of salt.

  • Cook in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden. If you are using an Electrickit Advanced Aga, cook in the top oven at 200c.

  • Take out of the oven and crumble a generous amount of feta on top, followed by a sprinkling of pine nuts.

  • Cook for 5 more minutes, then arrange a small bunch of fresh basil leaves on top of the finished tart.
