Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
- 300 grams cherry tomatoes
- 150 grams feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 5 leaves fresh basil leaves
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Step 2
Unroll the puff pastry sheet onto the prepared baking tray. Using a sharp knife, lightly score a border about 1.5 cm (0.5 inch) from the edges to create a crust. Be careful not to cut through completely.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon of water to make an egg wash. Brush the border of the puff pastry with the egg wash to help it turn golden during baking.
Step 4
Rinse the cherry tomatoes and slice them in half. Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Step 5
In a medium mixing bowl, toss the halved cherry tomatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Step 6
Crumble the feta cheese evenly over the center of the puff pastry sheet, staying within the scored border.
Step 7
Arrange the seasoned cherry tomatoes cut-side up over the crumbled feta cheese. Spread them out evenly for consistent cooking.
Step 8
Bake the slice in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed and the tomatoes are slightly caramelized.
Step 9
Remove the slice from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
Step 10
Slice into squares or rectangles and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
