Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Unroll the pastry onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. Score a border 2 cm in from the edge with a knife, without cutting through, and prick the middle all over with a fork.

  2. 2

    Bake for 10 minutes until it has started to puff and set.

    Press down the middle gently and spread with the mustard. Scatter over three quarters of the cheese, leaving the border bare.

  4. 4

    Lay the tomato slices over the cheese in overlapping rows. Season, scatter over the garlic and thyme and drizzle with the oil.

  5. 5

    Top with the rest of the cheese and bake for 25 minutes until the pastry is deep golden and the tomatoes have shrivelled at the edges.

    Scatter with basil and serve warm.
