Ingredients  

  • 3 large ripe tomatoes thickly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons mustard
  • 1 cup grated Emmental cheese
  • 0.5 teaspoon black sesame seeds toasted
  • salt pepper
  • olive oil
  • storebought filo pastry defrosted

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 375F. Line a shallow pie plate with parchment paper and brush with olive oil. Layer sheets of filo sheets (about 10-15, for reference) in the pie plate.
  • Spoon and spread half of the mustard on the bottom of the filo pastry. Add a handful of the cheese, then layer the tomato slices on top. Repeat one more time. Top with remaining cheese, season with salt and pepper and toasted sesame seeds.
  • Bake in the oven about 25-30 minutes until the pastry is crisp, the cheese is melted, and the tomatoes are cooked but still hold their shape.
