This rustic ratatouille and burrata tart uses Picard’s conveniently pre-rolled all-butter shortcrust pastry and a bag of their flavour-packed precooked ratatouille. It’s simple to assemble and full of summer flavour, regardless of which season you bake it in. Picard’s vegetables are picked and frozen at the height of their seasonality and ripeness, meaning you can enjoy the best summer vegetables at any time of year. The creamy burrata complements the tomatoey tang of the ratatouille perfectly and the richness of the pastry brings it all together to make a wonderful weekend lunch or light supper.
