Ingredients:

​​- 200g grated cheese (cheddar, mozzarella or other melting cheese)
– 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Instructions:
1. Make the dough by mixing the flour and salt in a large bowl. Add the cold butter and mix with your fingertips until it resembles sand.

5. Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard over the base of the tart. Sprinkle about half of the grated cheese over the mustard.
6. Arrange the tomato slices on top of the cheese, overlapping them slightly. Season with salt, pepper and chopped fresh basil.
7. Sprinkle the remaining grated cheese over the tomatoes. Drizzle lightly with olive oil.
8. Place the tart in the preheated oven and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crispy.
