Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 190°C. Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Using a rolling pin, roll pastry out to a 3mm thick 25cm diameter circle.
  2. Line a 20cm fluted loose-bottomed tart tin with pastry and trim excess. Prick pastry all over with a fork. Place in fridge for 20 minutes.

  4. Meanwhile, whisk eggs, sour cream, half the cheese, parsley and dill in a medium bowl until just combined. Season with salt and pepper. Scatter artichoke hearts and olives over pastry base. Pour over egg mixture and\ sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake for 20-25 minutes or until filling is set and golden.
  5. Stand in tin for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with extra parsley and dill. Cut tart into wedges and serve with salad leaves.

Notes

This tart is also great served cold as part of a picnic. You can use black olives, instead of green, if you prefer.
