Stages of cooking
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the chilled cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your hands to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, while stirring with a fork until the dough comes together.
-
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently a few times until it forms a smooth ball.
-
Roll out the dough into a circle large enough to fit your tart pan. Transfer the rolled dough to the tart pan, pressing it gently against the bottom and sides.
-
In a separate bowl, toss the sliced bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion with olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
-
Arrange the seasoned vegetables evenly over the dough in the tart pan.
-
Sprinkle the crumbled Adygei cheese over the vegetables.
-
Place the tart pan on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until the crust turns golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
-
Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
-
Garnish with fresh basil leaves.
-
Serve warm as an appetizer or a main course.
