It’s tomato season. They are everywhere. It’s great! It’s the perfect time for my thin tomato pie. It’s a quick and efficient recipe. You don’t have to be a great cook. It’s perfect for an appetizer or as an entrée.

For this recipe, you will need:

3 to 4 tomatoes
old-fashioned mustard
parmesan cheese
salt
pepper
Thyme
shortcrust pastry
a pie plate
10 minutes + 20 minutes cooking time

Shortcrust pastry :

For the dough, you can always buy one but, if you have the time and the desire, I really advise you to make it. It really makes a difference and it’s far from complicated. Just in case, I leave you my shortcrust pastry recipe.

For this recipe, you will need:

240 grams of flour type T65
45 ml of olive oil
1/2 teaspoon of salt
7 cl of lukewarm water
A container that goes in the fridge

Once you have gathered all the ingredients, you will mix everything in the container. You have to knead until you get a homogeneous ball, not too sticky. If you have a food processor, it’s even easier. It will knead for you. On the picture, you can see what mine looks like. Once it’s done, you just have to put it in the fridge for 15 minutes. To finish, we flour our work surface and we spread our dough. That’s it! You have just made your first homemade pie crust. Congratulations!

Now that we have the dough, home-made or not, we are going to spread it in the dish. Don’t forget to prick it all over with a fork like on the picture. After, we are going to apply a good layer of mustard to the bottom of the pie. We will cut the tomatoes in slices. We cut slices of about 5 millimeters. We will put a layer of tomato on all the pie. We sprinkle with thyme and salt flower. We finish with a touch of grated parmesan, and that’s it! We put in the oven for 20 minutes at 180 degrees. At the exit, we add a small blow of pepper mill and we taste. Cold or hot, it is with the choice. In any case, it is very good.
