Sesame Tomato Tart with prawns and roquette
Ingredients

300g puff pastry
250g sliced plum tomatoes
100g roasted sesame seeds
50ml olive oil
500g peeled prawns
Salt and pepper
For the dressing:
100ml olive oil
1 finely chopped shallot
1 large red pepper
100ml balsamic vinegar
10g chopped chives
Salt and pepper

 
Method

On a slightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry approximately to a thickness of 3mm for the base, and then chill in the fridge for about an hour.

Cover the round puff pastry with sliced tomatoes, sesame seeds and olive oil.  Pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees C and cook the pastry for 25 minutes until crispy.  In the meantime, prepare the dressing by heating some olive oil in a pan and sweat the shallots until tender.  Add the red pepper and cook gently for another 1 minute, then add the balsamic vinegar and chives.  Season and keep warm.

Cut the prawns in half and season them.  Heat the remaining oil in a non-stick pan and sauté the prawns for 30 seconds on each side.  Place the tart in a warm place, place the prawns neatly on top and spoon the dressing around them.

For garnish, serve with marinated roquette.
