Tomato, Feta, and Dijon Mustard Pastry Tart

Tomato, Feta, and Dijon Mustard Pastry Tart
This delicious tomato and cheese tart has become a staple in my kitchen. The combination of fresh tomatoes, creamy feta, sharp Parmesan, and a touch of Dijon mustard creates a perfect balance of flavors. The buttery, flaky crust adds a satisfying crunch to every bite. I love serving this tart warm or at room temperature, making it an ideal dish for any occasion, from a simple weeknight dinner to a festive gathering. It's a comforting, honest, and quietly impressive recipe that never fails to delight.
Ingredients
  • 8.8 oz (250 g) chilled shortcrust pastry
  • 1 lb (450 g) mixed fresh tomatoes, sliced
  • 5.3 oz (150 g) feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1.8 oz (50 g) Parmesan cheese, finely grated
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) Dijon mustard
  • 1 bunch fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) granulated sugar
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Roll out the chilled pastry on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/8 inch (3 mm).

3. In a small bowl, mix together the Dijon mustard, sugar, and a pinch of salt.

4. Place the rolled-out pastry on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

5. Arrange the sliced tomatoes on the pastry, leaving a 1-inch (2.5 cm) border around the edges. Brush the tomatoes with the mustard-sugar mixture.

6. Sprinkle the crumbled feta and grated Parmesan cheese over the tomatoes.

7. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

8. Fold the edges of the pastry up and over the filling, creating a rustic tart shape.

9. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the tomatoes are tender.

10. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.

11. Sprinkle with chopped fresh basil before slicing and serving.
