Summer is so easy: bake the base until crispy and then top with crunchy vegetables and plenty of pesto. Mhmm!

Cooking time: 35 minutes

For the tart

Ingredients (4 servings)
250 g Cherry tomatoes, halved
1 tablespoon(s) Balsamic vinegar
500 g Puff pastry (2 rolls or 1 large rectangle)
300 g green asparagus or broccolini
100 g Feta to crumble on top
1 Organic lemon (grated)
Extra virgin olive oil
Salt
Pepper
Rocket, cress or herbs to serve

For the basil pesto

Ingredients (4 servings)
80 g Basil, fresh (leaves only)
1 small clove of garlic, finely chopped
60 g Pine nuts or sunflower seeds, roasted
1 handful Parmesan, grated
Lemon juice and zest to taste
Salt
Pepper
Olive oil (enough until the pesto has a consistency that is easy to drizzle)
  • Preheat the oven to 180 °C (top/bottom heat) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
  • Mix the cherry tomatoes with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper, set aside.
  • Roll out the puff pastry, lay out in 2 sheets on the tray, score an edge all around with a knife, prick the inside several times with a fork (to prevent it from rising).
  • Bake for about 25 minutes until the dough is golden brown. Then leave to cool.
  • Mix the asparagus or broccolini with a little olive oil, salt and pepper and roast in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes.
  • For the pesto, chop the basil, garlic and seeds in a blender. Add the parmesan, lemon juice and zest, season with salt and pepper. Stir in enough olive oil to achieve a spreadable, easily drizzled consistency.
  • To serve, spread the pesto over the cooled puff pastry (save some for the top).
  • Top with the marinated tomatoes, roasted vegetables and crumbled feta.
  • Garnish with plenty of fresh rocket or cress.
  • Drizzle again with a little pesto and olive oil, season with lemon zest, pepper and salt flakes.
