    Meanwhile, combine garlic, oil, thyme and chilli in a bowl. Set aside.
  • 3.
    Preheat oven to 200°C. Grease a large baking tray and line with baking paper.
  • 4.
    Roll out pastry between 2 sheets of baking paper to 3mm thick. Cut into six 8cm x 11cm rectangles and six 9cm x 12cm rectangles (chill the pastry as required if it starts to get too soft). Arrange larger pastry pieces on prepared tray. Top with mozzarella slices and drizzle with a little of the oil mixture. Top with smaller pastry pieces, then fold up bottom pastry edges and press to seal. Drizzle with a little more oil mixture.
