Heritage Tomato & Black Garlic Balsamic Tarte Tatin

Heritage Tomato & Black Garlic Balsamic Tarte Tatin

 

Ingredients

  • 500 grams mixed heritage tomatoes (different colours and sizes), thickly sliced
  • 1 red onion, halved and sliced into thin wedges
  • 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 1 small courgette, sliced into rounds
  • 1 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons Black Garlic infused balsamic
  • 1 sheet all-butter puff pastry (320g)
  • 1 tablespoons milk, for brushing
  • 1 burrata, drained
  • 1 handful of fresh basil leaves
  • 1 pinch pinch flaky sea salt and black pepper, to season

 

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 190C fan. Using your pan as a guide, cut a circle from 1 sheet all-butter puff pastry (320g) about 2–3cm bigger than the pan all round — the extra gets tucked down the sides later. It's important the pan has a heatproof handle, as it goes into the oven.
  2. Heat olive oil in the pan over a medium-high heat. Lay the tomato slices flat in the pan, cut-side down (this is the side you'll see when it's flipped), and fry for about 5 minutes until they start to soften and release their juices. Scatter the garlic clove slices, red onion slices and courgette slices on top of the tomatoes.
  3. Drizzle over Black Garlic Infused Balsamic, season with flaky sea salt and black pepper,, and fry for a further 5 minutes until everything is sticky and glossy.
  4. Take the pan off the heat. Lay the pastry over the vegetables and tuck the edges down inside the pan. Brush with a little milk, and pierce with a fork 5–8 times so steam can escape.
  5. Bake for 25 minutes, until the pastry is puffed, golden and crisp.
  6. Leave to cool in the pan for 5–10 minutes — this settles the juices and makes the flip cleaner. Run a knife around the edge, place a board or plate over the pan and turn it upside down in one confident motion.
  7. Top with torn  burrata, drained, scatter over a handful of fresh basil leaves and finish with more Black Garlic Infused Balsamic drizzled over. Serve warm, in wedges.
