2 tbsp olive oil

1 cup fresh basil

1 clove garlic

1/2 lemon squeezed

Preheat the oven to 200ºC

Fill each of the tartlet tins with the shortcrust pastry and give a few prods to the base with a fork

Bake in the oven for around 12 minutes

Prepare the pesto by blending all of the ingredients together in a food processor (can use a pestle and mortar)

Slice the tomatoes ready to top the tart

Take the tartlets out, add a scoop of pesto to each tart, then top with the a few halves of tomato and pine nuts

Place back in the oven for a further 3-4 minutes

Allow to cool on a cooling rack and enjoy!
