Tomato and Cheddar Pie

This savoury tomato and cheddar pie is a wonderful celebration of seasonal produce, featuring a golden, flaky buttermilk crust that perfectly balances the juicy sweetness of ripe tomatoes. The filling is a rich combination of sharp extra-mature cheddar, salty Parmesan and a herb-infused mayonnaise that creates a creamy, indulgent texture. It is a hearty vegetarian main that looks beautiful when served at the centre of the table.

Ideal for a weekend lunch or a light summer supper, this comforting dish is best enjoyed at room temperature to allow the flavours to develop and the filling to set. Serve it with a crisp green salad or some steamed seasonal greens for a balanced meal that the whole family will love. This recipe is a fantastic way to make the most of a tomato glut during the warmer months.

Ingredients for Tomato and Cheddar Pie

  • 250g plain flour

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoons bicarbonate of soda

  • 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

  • 6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2" cubes

  • 240ml buttermilk

  • 900g large ripe tomatoes, cored and cut into 1/4" slices

  • 375g coarsely grated extra-sharp cheddar (8-250g )

  • 40g finely grated Parmesan (15g)

  • 1 spring onion, trimmed, chopped

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

  • 2 teaspoons sugar

  • 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt

  • 1/2 colher de chá de pimenta-do-reino moída na hora

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cornmeal

  • Use a 9"-diameter glass or ceramic pie dish

Whisk first 4 ingredients in a medium bowl. Using your fingertips, rub in butter until coarse meal forms and some small lumps remain. Stir in buttermilk and knead gently with your hands until dough forms. Wrap dough in plastic and chill for 1 hour.

Lay tomatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with 2 layers of paper towels. Place another 2 layers of paper towels on top of tomatoes. Let stand for 30 minutes to drain.

Preheat oven to 218°C. Roll out dough between 2 sheets of plastic wrap to an 11" round. Remove top layer of plastic wrap. Invert dough onto pie dish. Carefully peel off plastic wrap.

Toss both cheeses in a medium bowl until evenly incorporated. Reserve 30g cheese mixture. Whisk spring onion, mayonnaise, dill, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

Sprinkle cornmeal evenly over bottom of crust, then top with 60g cheese mixture. Arrange 1/3 of tomatoes over cheese, overlapping as needed. Spread half of mayonnaise mixture (about 40g ) over. Repeat layering with 120g cheese mixture, 1/2 of remaining tomato slices, and remaining mayonnaise mixture. Sprinkle remaining 120g cheese mixture over, then remaining tomato slices. Sprinkle with reserved 30g cheese mixture. Fold overhanging crust up and over edges of tomato slices.

Bake pie until crust is golden and cheese is golden brown, 35-40 minutes (check crust halfway and tent with foil if it's getting too dark). Let pie cool at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours before slicing and serving.
