Method

Preheat the grill to medium.

Pulse flour, oil, egg yolk, and seasoning in a processor while adding water to form dough.

Knead dough on a floured surface and roll into a 5mm thick round.

Heat an ovenproof pan, insert dough, layer courgette and tomato, and grill for 5 minutes.

Top with mozzarella and olives and grill for 2 minutes until melted.

Heat tomato purée and water in a pan while stirring.

Blend parsley and oil in a mini food processor until smooth.

Drizzle the sauce and purée over the tart and serve.
