Preparation steps
1.
Heat the oven to200° C (180°fan) 400°F gas 6. Line a baking tray with non-sstick baking paper.
2.
Roll out the pastry between 2 sheets of non-stick baking paper to a rectangle of about 35cm x 25cm|14" x 10". Place on the baking tray.
3.
With a knife, make a small indent around the rectangle to create a border of about 1.5cm|1/2". You will now have a smaller rectangle within the pastry.
4.
Spread the pesto evenly over the smaller rectangle. Scatter the tomatoes over the pesto, drizzle with the oil and season to taste with salt and pepper.
5.
Brush the border of the pastry with the egg and bake for about 20 minutes, until the pastry border is golden and the tomatoes are soft. Cut into small squares to serve.
