Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Line a large baking tray with paper.
- Defrost the broccoli florets in the microwave and drain. Roughly chop.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Cook the garlic and onion over a medium heat for 4-5 mins until softened. Add the grated carrot and the broccoli, then cook for 2 mins or until heated through.
- Tip into a bowl, season, then stir through the beaten egg and most of the grated cheese.
- Lay the filo pastry out on a clean work surface. Brush each layer with a little oil and stack up the sheets.
- Lay the filo stack on the prepared tray. Heap the filling onto the filo, leaving a 3cm border around the edges. Fold over the edges to just cover the filling. It’s ok if the pastry doesn’t stay stuck down.
- Sprinkle over the remaining grated cheese and bake for 20-25 mins until golden brown. Leave to cool in the tin for 5 mins before lifting off to slice. 8. Serve the tart with salad.
- Tip: Leftover filo can be frozen or why not make a double batch of tarts to be kept in the freezer for last-minute meals.
