Prepare to the end of step 2 the day before; cover and chill on the baking sheet. The tart can be baked 3-4 hours before serving.
Remove the pastry from the fridge and preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas 6.
Unroll the pastry onto a baking sheet and use a sharp knife to score a visible 1cm margin around the edge without cutting all the way through.
Crumble the goats’ cheese onto the pastry, staying within the margin. Halve or slice the tomatoes fairly finely. Arrange them on top of the goats’ cheese and sprinkle with some sea salt and pepper. Slice the olives and scatter them on top.
Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the pastry has puffed up around the tomatoes and is a light golden brown. Scatter with the thyme, drizzle over a little oil and leave to cool. Serve at room temperature.
