Meanwhile, grill the tomato slices on both sides.

Line a tin with the sheet of puff pastry, prick it with a fork and add the ricotta and Grana Padano PDO mixture levelling it with the back of a spoon. Add alternating layers of vegetables and the olives. Dust the top with grated Grana Padano PDO and brush the pastry edge with beaten egg. Cook in a preheated oven at 180 °C for 25 minutes.
