After a week of silence, due to a trip to Italy which I will discuss later, here is a recipe that made me discover one of my girlfriends Navy (it is indeed that I have many girlfriends who are called Marine). This is a zucchini with goat cheese tatin, this is so easy to do and it really makes its effect. It is normally done with a pastry, but being in the south I wanted to try a test of pastry with olive oil and herbs de Provence, the result was all the better…

Tatin with zucchini, goat cheese and pesto

Prep: 20mins
Cooking: 25mins

Serves 6 people

- 5 large zucchini
- 1 toggle Goat
- 6 tablespoons pesto
- 1 pastry
- salt, pepper

Preheat oven to 200 °. Wash the zucchini and then cut into cubes without peeling. Sauté in a pan with a little olive oil over medium heat for 10 minutes, adding a little water if they begin to attach. Remove from heat when they begin to be a little melting, then drain.

Cut the goat toothpick into thin slices. Line the bottom of a round pan 3 tablespoons of pesto and half slices of goat.

Mix zucchini 3 tablespoons pesto, salt and pepper. Divide the zucchini in pan on washers goat. Add the remaining slices of goat over zucchini.

Cover with a pastry that is “edged” around the zucchini arranging the edges of the dough on the sides of the mold. Draw a cross with a knife in the middle of the dough so that the steam can escape.

Bake at 200 ° for 20 minutes and then go under the grill for 5 minutes to brown the dough.

Turn out the Tatin right out of the oven on a serving dish and enjoy hot or warm.

- This is perfect Tatin dish or as an accompaniment to fish or meat.
- If the release of the Tatin scares you, Cut a circle of parchment paper to the diameter of your pan and place it in the bottom of the pan before placing the slices of goat. Release provided spectacular !
