  3. Score a 1-inch border around the edges of the pastry and prick the surface with a fork.
  4. Whisk together one egg with a tablespoon of water, then brush over the pastry as an egg wash.
  5. Pre-bake the pastry for 10 minutes until just golden brown.
  6. Spread Boursin cheese evenly across the pre-baked pastry, crack the eggs on top, and sprinkle with kosher salt.
  7. Return the tart to the oven and bake for an additional 12 to 14 minutes.
  8. Top with green onions, torn prosciutto, and arugula salad drizzled with olive oil and lemon juice.
