Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F). Roll out 200g puff pastry sheets on a floured surface into a 30cm circle, then transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  2. Step 2: Thinly slice 300g heirloom tomatoes and arrange in concentric circles over the pastry, leaving a 2cm border. Sprinkle 15g fresh thyme, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 3 tbsp olive oil evenly over the tomatoes.
  3. Step 3: Bake for 25 minutes until the pastry is golden and tomatoes are bubbling around the edges, then sprinkle 50g grated Pecorino Romano, 1/4 tsp sea salt, and 1/8 tsp black pepper over the top and bake 5 more minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
