Step 1

Trim and peel the courgettes, quarter lengthways, cut away and discard the seedy core, then roughly chop and place in a large shallow casserole pan on a medium heat with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the dried mint. Cook gently for 30 minutes, stirring regularly, then mash half the courgettes with a potato masher and fold back through the rest. Season to perfection and leave to cool for 5 minutes.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas

Step 4

Unroll the pastry sheet on its paper and place on a baking tray. Spoon over the cooled courgettes, leaving a 1cm border around the edge, then fold up the sides, pressing at the corners to secure. Brush the exposed pastry with a little oil, and cook at the bottom of the oven for 30 minutes, or until the pastry is beautifully golden and puffed up. Randomly dot over the olive tapenade, break over the fresh goat’s cheese, then take to the table and serve up.
