Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 2 large tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Transfer it to the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Spread the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a small border around the edges. Arrange the tomato slices on top of the cheese, overlapping slightly. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and pepper.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and crispy.
  5. Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing and serving.

Notes

Use ripe tomatoes for the best flavor. To avoid a soggy crust, sprinkle a thin layer of breadcrumbs or grated Parmesan cheese on the puff pastry before adding the toppings. Customize with sliced olives, caramelized onions, or crumbled feta cheese for extra flavor.
