Fresh Tomato Tart
Bake: 25 mins at 450°F /375 degree F
Stand: 5 mins
Ingredients
- 1/2 15 ounce folded refrigerated unbaked piecrust (1 crust)
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (6 ounces)
- 4 roma or small regular tomatoes
- 3/4 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing
- 1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper
- Fresh basil leaves (optional)
Directions
1. Unfold the piecrust according to package directions. Line a 9-inch tart pan with pastry (it's easier to remove the baked tart if pan has a removable bottom). Press the pastry into the fluted sides of the tart pan and trim the edges. Don't prick. Partially bake in a 450 degree F oven for 5 to 7 minutes or until pastry is slightly dry.
2. Remove from oven. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degree F.
3. Meanwhile, cut the tomatoes into wedges; drain the wedges on paper towels. Arrange the tomato wedges over the melted cheese in a baked crust.
4. In a food processor bowl, combine basil and garlic; cover and process with on-off turns until coarsely chopped. Or snip the basil and mince the garlic.
5. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the basil-garlic mixture, the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese, the mayonnaise, the grated Parmesan cheese, and pepper. Spread the mixture evenly over tomato wedges.
6. Bake in a 375 degree F oven for about 25 minutes or until cheese is golden. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting into wedges. Serve warm. If you like, garnish with additional basil leaves. Makes 8 appetizer or 4 main-dish servings.
