Double this for a crowd, or make one big one if that’s easier for you. Have all the prep done beforehand so you can assemble and cook with ease, before serving warm.

OLIVE AND TOMATO TARTS RECIPE

Makes 8

½ cup marinated olives, chopped

½ cup parsley

100g feta, crumbled

1 egg

¼ tsp each salt and pepper
