Ingredients

all-butter shortcrust pastry 300g
courgettes 2, very thinly sliced
garlic 2 cloves, sliced
olive oil
mascarpone 4 tbsp
parmesan (or veggie alternative) 50g, grated
egg 1, beaten to glaze

Method

Step 1

Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Roll the pastry out to a rough 30cm circle and put on a non-stick baking sheet. Toss the courgettes and garlic with a little olive oil and lots of seasoning.
Step 2

Mix the mascarpone with half the parmesan and spread over the circle, leaving a border of 3cm all round.
Step 3

Arrange the courgettes over the mascarpone in overlapping rows then fold over the edges to make a rough border. Glaze the pastry edge with egg.
Step 4

Bake for 15 minutes, then scatter the rest of the parmesan over the courgettes. Bake for another 15-20 minutes until the pastry is golden and cooked through.
