Ingredients

• 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
• 2 medium Yukon gold potatoes
• 2 medium Roma tomatoes
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Roll out the puff pastry sheet onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a knife to lightly score a 1-inch border around the edges, being careful not to cut all the way through.

Step 3

Peel the potatoes and slice them into thin rounds, approximately 1/8-inch thick, using a mandoline or sharp knife. Set aside.

Step 4

Slice the Roma tomatoes into thin rounds, approximately the same thickness as the potatoes. Place them on a paper towel to drain excess moisture.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix olive oil, fresh thyme leaves, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 6

Layer the potato slices over the puff pastry, slightly overlapping each slice. Leave the scored border uncovered.

Step 7

Brush half of the olive oil mixture over the potato slices, ensuring an even coating.

Step 8

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the potatoes, then layer the tomato slices on top of the cheese.

Step 9

Brush the remaining olive oil mixture over the tomatoes, then sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.

Step 10

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the egg wash over the puff pastry border to help it achieve a golden color when baked.

Step 11

Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 12

Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes. Slice into portions and serve warm.
