2-3medium sizedfirm but ripe tomatoes
Instructions
Make the Galette Dough
Stir together the yogurt and water in a small bowl and set aside. In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients and toss them around to combine. Add the pieces of butter to the bowl and using a pastry cutter or your hands, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture looks like a coarse meal.
Gradually pour the milk-yogurt mixture to the bowl. Gather the mixture to form a shaggy dough. Divide dough into two portions, Shape each portion into a disc, wrap in plastic and chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours. We are only going to need half of the galette dough (one of the discs) to make the cheese tomato galette.
Assemble and Bake
Position a rack in the lower third of the oven. Pre heat oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unwrap one of the dough discs. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into an 11 inch circle that is about 1/8 inch thick. You need to lift up the dough from time to time to prevent it from sticking to your work surface. Wrap the dough gently around your rolling pin, lift it up and place on the parchment paper lined baking sheet.
Combine cheeses and cilantro. Scatter them on the surface of the dough but leave about an inch of border on the sides. Place tomato slices on top of the cheeses with the slices overlapping. Fold the edges of the dough over to the center, allowing the dough to pleat naturally as you fold. Bake at 400 F for 35-40 minutes. The crust should be crisp and golden and the cheese is bubbly.
Let the galette cool on the sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
