Mediterranean Vegetable & Goat's Cheese Galette

Mediterranean Vegetable & Goat's Cheese Galette

This is our kind of summer meal – just remember to keep your pastry as cool as possible to avoid the butter from melting into the flour, as this will make your pastry greasy. If needed, you can chill your galette for 15 minutes in the fridge before baking to ensure a crumbly pastry.
Serves
1 x 10" pie
Total Time
45 Minutes
Ingredients
300g of plain flour
150g of salted butter, cubed
3 tbsp of cold water
1 packet of prepared Mediterranean vegetables (400g) or a mix of fresh, chopped into chunks
150g of soft goat’s cheese, cut into slices
1 egg
Salt & pepper
Method
Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan).

Step 2

In the large mixing bowl, rub the flour and butter with your fingers until a crumb consistency is achieved. Add the water and stir together to form a pastry dough.

Step 3

Tip the dough out onto the lined baking tray and roll out into a large oval/circle shape (2-3mm thickness).

Step 4

Arrange a layer of goat’s cheese slices in the centre of the pastry, top with the vegetables and then fold in the edges to encase everything. Place a few additional goat’s cheese slices on top of the vegetables.

Step 5

Beat the egg and use a pastry brush or your finger to egg wash the folded pastry edges before seasoning the whole galette with salt and pepper.

Step 6

Bake for 30 minutes until the pastry is golden, allow to cool slightly and serve.
