Instructions
Pre-heat the oven to 180°c.

Allow the tomatoes to fry for a few minutes before removing from the heat.
Distribute the tomatoes between the muffin holes/frying pans and cover with a disc of pastry big enough to cover all the tomatoes.
Place the tarte tatins in the oven and allow to bake until the pastry is golden brown and puffed (approximately 12-15 minutes).
