Jamie Oliver Air Fryer Tomato & Mozzarella Tart Ingredients

• 500g ripe tomatoes
• ½ x 320g sheet of ready-rolled puff pastry
• 6 black olives, stone in
• ½ a fresh red chilli
• ½ x 125g ball of mozzarella
• 2 sprigs of basil
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
• ½ tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• Sea salt and black pepper

How To Make Jamie Oliver Air Fryer Tomato & Mozzarella Tart

1. Roast the Tomatoes: Halve the tomatoes and remove the seeds. Place them in the air fryer drawer with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Cook cut-side down for 15 minutes at 200ºC until soft and golden.
2. Prepare the Pastry: Stretch the puff pastry to fit the air fryer drawer. Lay it over the roasted tomatoes, tucking the edges. Cook for 15 minutes at 200ºC until golden and puffed.
3. Make the Topping: Squash and destone the olives, slice the chilli, and mix with red wine vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper.
4. Assemble the Tart: Flip the tart onto a board. Tear over mozzarella and basil leaves, then spoon over the olive mixture.
5. Serve: Pair with a simple rocket salad on the side, if desired.

Recipe Tips

• Use ripe tomatoes: This ensures a juicy, sweet base after roasting.
• Stretch pastry carefully: Ensure it covers the tomato base fully and tucks in for proper puff.
• Flip with confidence: Use a board and steady motion to invert the tart without breaking it.
• Balance flavors: The vinegar and chilli add needed zing—don’t skip them.
• Add greens: A light salad balances the tart’s richness.

What To Serve With Tomato & Mozzarella Tart

This tart pairs beautifully with a fresh rocket or mixed greens salad, balsamic vinaigrette, or even a chilled glass of white wine. It also complements grilled vegetables or a light soup.

How To Store Tomato & Mozzarella Tart

Refrigerate: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
