zucchini ribbon, buffalo mozzarella and lemon tart

If you are a 'last minute Lucy' as I tend to be with mid week dinner's on my mind. You and your crew will happily appreciate this throw together summery Zucchini tart.
makes 4 tarts prep 5 mins cook 20-25 mins
ingredients
3-4 zucchinis, very finely sliced
2 frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed, sliced evenly into 2 pieces
1 egg white
1-2 fresh buffalo mozzarella balls, shredded
1/2 cup round mint leaves
1 tablespoon lemon zest
Juice of 1 lemon, optional
salt and pepper, to taste

to do
Pre-heat oven to 180C and line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
Place pastry pieces onto baking paper and using a fork pierce holes in the top of each pastry half. Layer 8-10 pieces of zucchini on top of the pastry leaving a 1cm border clear. Brush zucchinis with egg whites (to prevent over browning).
Bake for 20-25 minutes.
Remove from oven and transfer tarts immediately to cake cooling racks (prevents pastry going soggy), sprinkle each tart evenly with buffalo mozzarella, mint, lemon zest and juice. Season to taste.
