["Preheat oven to 425u00b0F.", "Lightly roll out puff pastry on parchment to smooth out creases. Transfer dough with parchment paper to a baking sheet. Using a knife, lightly score a 1"" border around the dough and prick a couple times in the center with form. Brush with egg wash and bake until golden and slightly puffed, about 10 minutes.", "Meanwhile, in a medium sized bowl, mix goat cheese and cream. Set aside.", "Next, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium sized sauce skillet over medium-high heat. Add leeks and cook until they soften. Season with salt, and stir in garlic for 30 seconds.", "When puff pastry is done, let cool slightly. If it puffs up too much, prick with a fork to deflate. Spread goat cheese mixture evenly within the 1 inch border. Next, pull leaves off of 2 sprigs of thyme and sprinkle on top. Place potato slices, 1-2 layers deep, on top of goat cheese, drizzling with olive oil and salt in between if doing 2 layers. Top with leeks and black pepper.", "Bake until pastry is golden brown and baked through, about 18-20 minutes. Let cool slightly. Sprinkle remaining thyme on top before serving."]

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.
