Delicious vegetarian tartlets with bocconcini cheese and tomatoes.
Ingredients:
  • 180g tub bocconcini, drained
  • 21 sheets filo pastry
  • 20g (1/4 cup) finely grated parmesan
  • 40.00 ml dried breadcrumbs
  • 500g assorted heirloom tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 125.00 ml fresh basil leaves
  • Gourmet Garden Basil Pesto Finishing Drizzle, to serve
  • Green salad, to serve (optional)
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan forced. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper and slice the bocconcini after draining on paper towel.
  • Place the filo sheets on a clean work surface and cover with a damp tea towel. Lightly spray one sheet with olive oil, layer six more sheets on top, then cut the stack in half. Repeat this process with the remaining filo sheets to create a total of 6 filo stacks.
  • Mix the parmesan and breadcrumbs in a bowl. Distribute evenly onto the centers of the filo stacks. Add tomato, bocconcini, and onion on top, leaving a 5cm border around the edges.
  • Wrap the pastry border around the edge of each tartlet, then transfer them to the prepared trays. Lightly spray with oil and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry turns crisp and golden, and the bocconcini cheese is melted.
  • Sprinkle with fresh basil leaves and generously drizzle with flavorful pesto. Enjoy with a side salad, if desired.
