Method

Step 1

Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Cut the pastry into 4 and trim any rough edges, then score a border 1cm in from the edge on each. Put on a baking sheet and gently prick inside the border. Bake for 10 minutes.
Step 2

Mix the ricotta, tarragon, garlic and lemon zest and season.
Step 3

Take the tarts out and gently push in the middles. Spread the ricotta mix inside the border. Toss the courgette with a splash of olive oil and some seasoning, then arrange on top of the ricotta. Bake for another 15-20 minutes.
