Savory Tomatoes

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a pie or tart dish and set aside.

Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves, and peel and dice the onion into small, even pieces.

Heat a skillet over medium heat with a drizzle of oil, then sauté the garlic and onion together until softened and fragrant, stirring occasionally.

Add the chopped tomatoes to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the excess moisture has evaporated and the mixture thickens slightly.

Season the tomato filling generously with salt and pepper to taste, then remove the skillet from the heat and allow the filling to cool slightly.

Press or roll out your pastry base into the prepared dish, trimming any excess around the edges to form a neat shell.

Spoon the tomato, garlic, and onion filling evenly into the pastry shell, spreading it out to the edges with a spatula.

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake until the pastry is golden and the filling is set and lightly caramelized on top.
