Ingredients:

For the pastry:.

1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
¼ tsp salt
½ cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
¼ cup ice water

For the roasted vegetables:.

1 medium-sized zucchini, thinly sliced
1 medium-sized yellow squash, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 red onion, thinly sliced
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste

For the filling:.

4 oz goat cheese, crumbled
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp fresh basil, chopped

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt for the pastry. Add the chilled, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

3. Gradually add the ice water, a tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix. Shape the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

4. While the dough is chilling, prepare the roasted vegetables. In a roasting pan, toss the zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and red onion with olive oil, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.

Spread the vegetables evenly and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred.

5. Remove the pastry dough from the refrigerator and roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Carefully transfer the rolled-out dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet.

6. In a small bowl, mix together the crumbled goat cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, lemon zest, and fresh basil. Spread the cheese mixture evenly onto the center of the pastry, leaving a 2-inch border.

7. Arrange the roasted vegetables over the cheese mixture. Gently fold the edges of the pastry over the filling, pleating as you go, to create a rustic tart. Press down lightly to seal any openings.

8. Bake the galette in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy.

9. Once baked, remove the galette from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. This galette can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.

10. Serve slices of the galette as an appetizer, main course, or alongside a fresh green salad for a complete meal. It pairs wonderfully with a glass of chilled white wine.
