01 -
1 sheet of puff or shortcrust pastry
02 -
3 large onions
03 -
150 g fresh goat cheese
→ Seasonings and Flavors
04 -
2 tablespoons olive oil
05 -
2 tablespoons runny honey
06 -
1 teaspoon dried thyme (or fresh thyme if you have it)
07 -
Ground black pepper – adjust to your taste
08 -
Salt – season however much you prefer
→ Optional Toppings
09 -
A handful of arugula leaves
# Instructions:
01 -
Get the oven up to 180°C (or gas mark 6).
02 -
Peel the onions, then slice them into thin circles. Warm up olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Toss the onion slices in and let them cook slowly for 15 to 20 minutes.
03 -
Stir in the thyme, salt, and pepper. Keep cooking the onions for a few more minutes to blend the flavors.
04 -
Place the pastry sheet in a greased and floured tart pan. Using a fork, poke tiny holes across the bottom.
05 -
Spread the cooked onions evenly across the pastry base. Crumble the goat cheese over the top.
06 -
Slide the tart into the oven and bake until the pastry turns golden brown—this takes about 25 to 30 minutes.
07 -
Take your creation out of the oven and brush with honey. If you’d like, sprinkle a few arugula leaves to garnish.

01 -
Let the onions simmer gently to bring out their sweetness
