Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).

Stage 5 - ⌛ 5 min.

Arrange the tomato slices in the pan over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes.

Stage 6 - ⌛ 7 min.

Meanwhile, roll out the pastry fairly thinly, prick all over and cut out a circle a little larger in diameter than the pan.

Stage 7 - ⌛ 1 min.

Pepper the tomatoes, place the pastry lid on top and put in the oven.

Stage 8 - ⌛ 40 min.

Leave to cook until the top of the pastry is golden brown.
