Prep time: 20mn
Cook time: 25mn

Serves 6
Ingredients
  • 5 big zucchinis
  • 1 goats cheese buchette
  • 6 tablespoons of pesto
  • 1 shortcrust pastry (or puff pastry)
  • olive oil, salt, and pepper
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 200°C. Wash the zucchinis and cut into large cubes without peeling them. Sauté in a pan with a little olive oil for 10 minutes over medium heat, adding a little water if they start stick to the bottom of the pan. When soft, turn off the heat and drain the zucchinis to remove excess water.
  2. Cut the goats cheese into thin slices. Line the bottom of a round tin with 3 tablespoons of pesto and place over about 9 pieces of goats slices.
  3. Mix the courgettes with 3 tablespoons of pesto, salt and pepper. Spread the zucchinis over the goats cheese. Cut the remaining goats cheese in pieces and add on top of the zucchinis.
  4. Prick the pastry with a fork and turn it on the zucchinis. If the pastry is larger than the tin, place the edges of the dough on the inside of the tin. Make a small hole using the tip of a knife in the middle of the dough so that the steam can escape.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes at 200°C and then turn on the grill for 5 minutes to brown the dough if necessary. Let cool 5mn out of the oven (no more) then remove your tarte tatin from its tin: place your serving dish over the tin, flip the tin over and tada! you should have beautiful savoury tarte tatin on your dish!
  6. Serve hot or warm with a green salad.

- This tarte tatin is perfect as a side with fish or meat.
