Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon sugar

1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, diced

1/4 cup cold water (more as needed)

3 medium ripe tomatoes, sliced

1 cup fresh corn kernels (about 2 ears)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon fresh basil, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

1 egg (for egg wash)

Optional: Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions
 

Make the Crust: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and sugar. Add the diced cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing just until the dough comes together. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

    Prepare the Filling: While the dough is chilling, prepare the filling. In a bowl, combine the sliced tomatoes and fresh corn kernels. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with oregano, chopped basil, salt, and pepper. Toss gently to combine and set aside to marinate.

      Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

        Roll Out the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a large circle, about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer it to a parchment-lined baking sheet.

          Assemble the Galette: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese in the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Arrange the marinated tomato and corn mixture on top of the cheese.

            Fold the Edges: Carefully fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating it as you go. This creates a beautiful rustic edge.

              Egg Wash: Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush it over the exposed crust to give it a golden finish.

                Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

                  Cool and Serve: Allow the galette to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh basil if desired, and serve warm or at room temperature.
