Serves 4
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Oven temperature: 200°C
Baking time: 30 minutes

• 1 roll readymade puff pastry, defrosted
• 250ml crème fraîche
• 100ml fresh sweet basil, coarsely chopped
• 4 slices of ham or finely sliced turkey roll
• 4 eggs
• 200g cherry tomatoes or grilled tomato quarters

1 Preheat the oven. Roll out the dough on a clean surface and divide into quarters. Make an incision 1cm from the edges of each square, without cutting right through. Place the squares on a greased baking tray and bake for 15 minutes until risen and almost cooked through.
2 Mix the sweet basil with the crème fraîche, season with salt and pepper and divide among the four tartlets. Cover each with a slice of ham and break an egg over the top. Garnish with a few tomatoes and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes until cooked. Serve with extra sweet basil crème fraîche.
