• Tomato and thyme tarte Tatin

    Serves: 4
    Cooking Time: 45 minutes

    Ingredients

    • Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a baking dish with baking paper. Place the tomatoes, oil, garlic, thyme and rosemary in the dish and season well.
    • Bake for 25 – 30 minutes until the tomatoes have softened, released their juices and are slightly caramelised.
    • Transfer the tomatoes to a cast-iron pan in a single overlapping layer.
    • Roll the pastry out on a lightly floured surface and cut a round disc, slightly bigger than the pan. Place the pastry disc on top of the tomatoes, tucking the edges under the tomatoes as you go.
    • Brush with the egg and, using a sharp knife, make a small steam hole in the centre of the pastry. Bake in a preheated 200°C oven for 15 – 20 minutes or until the pastry has puffed and is a light golden colour.
    • Scatter the tarte Tatin with the extra thyme before serving.
