Instructions
Thaw puff pastry as per package directions. 20 minutes is good enough.
Pre-heat oven to 400 F .
Chop artichoke hearts.
In a bowl, take the tomato sauce, mayonnaise, seasonings, chopped fresh rosemary, salt and pepper. Stir everything. Add chopped artichoke hearts.
Add half of the cheese in this mix. Leave some to sprinkle on top. Mix everything well.
Carefully unfold the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface, roll out puff pastry just a little bit. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
With a sharp knife, score the pastry about ¼ inch from the edges to create a border (be careful not to cut all the way through). Transfer it to the baking sheet.
Spread the artichoke filling evenly on the pastry inside the scored border.
Sprinkle leftover cheese.
Bake the tart for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is puffed up and golden brown.
Remove it and cool it on a wire rack for 5 minutes before cutting.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Tart taste best when it is baked.
After the puff pastry has thawed, you will be able to easily unfold it. (I would not recommend unfolding it when it is frozen, or it will tear).
Use thick variety of tomato sauce and add a pinch of sugar if it is sour.
