  1. Preheat the oven to gas 5, 190°C, 170°C fan. Line a baking tray with nonstick paper. Lay the puff pastry on top. Score a line into the pastry 1cm (1/2in) in from the edge. Prick the inner base.

  3. Boil the fine beans for 4 minutes. Add the petit pois and broad beans after 2 minutes. Drain, then pod the broad beans.
  4. Put the veg in the tart, scatter over the feta and remaining chives. Drizzle over the oil.
  5. Cook for 5-10 more minutes.
