Cam Smith and Dana Ewart are two enterprising Torontonians who used to work for uber chef Chris McDonald at the former Avalon restaurant. They were attracted to the nascent food and wine scene in the Okanagan and opened Joy Road Catering to showcase the area's food and wine.

We attended a winemakers dinner at an eclectic inn called God's Mountain Estate situated on a cliff overlooking Okanagan Lake. Dana and Cam matched the exceptional but simple food with very credible wines from Wild Goose Winery.

The Apple d'Or bed and breakfast in Naramata, where we stayed, served these wonderful galettes, which Dana also sells at the Penticton market, going through 300 or 400 each market day. In the following recipe Dana uses part salted butter and part unsalted. We used all unsalted.

Pastry:

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon sugar

3/4 cup unsalted butter

3 to 4 tablespoons ice water

Filling:

1/4 cup sugar

1 tablespoon flour

4 large ripe peaches, pitted and cut into 1/2-inch slices

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Combine flour, salt, sugar and butter and pulse in a food processor, or cut the butter into the dry ingredients with two knives until it is the size of small peas. Sprinkle in just enough water to bring dough together. Use your hands to gather dough into a ball. Wrap dough in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.

Cut dough into 4 pieces and roll on a floured surface to about 1/4-inch thick. Rounds will be about 7 inches in diameter.

Preheat oven to 375 F.

Combine sugar and flour. Add peaches and lemon juice and toss to coat. Set aside.

Place rolled out dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Pile peaches in the centre of each pastry round, leaving a 3/4-inch border around the peaches. Loosely crimp pastry so that you have an edge that stands up about 3/4 of an inch all around the peaches. Use your hands to fold the pastry edge in towards the centre to enclose peaches slightly. This will prevent pastry from collapsing.

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until pastry is golden and juices are bubbling. Makes 4 galettes.
