Tomato, Sage & Ricotta Tart
This is an any time of the day tart. In the morning, it's a lovely addition to an elegant brunch spread. In the afternoon, serve it with a green salad. Or at dinner, it works as a light meal or accompanied by a bowl of soup. It can be served warm from the oven or allowed to cool to enjoy at room temperature.

Ingredients
- 4 medium tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 garlic cloves
- 14 ounces all-butter puff pastry, thawed
- ¾ cup ricotta
- ½ cup fresh grated parmigiano
- 2 eggs
- 8 sage leaves, chopped
- freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 F. Cut tomatoes in half, scoop out the seeds with your finger and give them a shake over the sink to get rid of any extra liquid. Place in an oiled baking pan large enough to fit them in one layer. Drizzle with olive oil and ½ teaspoon salt and roast 50-60 minutes. Meanwhile, wrap the garlic in foil and roast in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove and let cool.
- Unfold the pastry. It should be about a 10 x 14 inch rectangle, and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Score the outside with a knife, not cutting all the way through, about ½ inch from the edge. This will be the border.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cheeses, egg, sage, black pepper, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt. Peel the garlic and smash with the back of a knife. Add to the bowl and mix well. Spread the cheese mixture over the pastry, then top with the tomatoes.
- Bake 30-40 minutes until pastry is browned. Let cool for 5 minutes then slice and serve.
