Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200C and cut each phyllo sheet to four. Brush 4 tartlet tins (10-12cm diameter) with butter. Lay each tartlet tin with four pieces of phyllo sheet, brushing each one with butter as you go. Bake for 7-8 minutes until lightly colored.

Step 2
Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat and cook all veggies for 5-7 minutes, until softened and golden. Add basil, salt and pepper and tomato. Cook for another 5 minutes. Let cool and fill in tartlets.

Step 3
Sprinkle tartlets with smoked cheese and bake for 4-5 minutes until cheese melts. Serve warm.
