Seth’s onion tart (for Cheryl)

Actually, it’s my recipe but I kindly shared it with him so he would make dinner for totally unselfish reasons

For a tart that feeds 2 (around the size of a standard baking sheet)

Slice 3 medium onions

Fry the onions on a low heat for about 10 minutes so they soften gradually. When they are good and soft add some balsamic vinegar and a little brown sugar and let them caramelise for a couple of minutes.

Roll out some puff pastry (I always use pre-prepared and one sheet is the perfect size) onto a baking sheet. Grate parmesan onto the pastry, leaving a bit of a cheese-free border around the edge (the border will puff up and the cheesy bit will go all soft).

Pour your onions onto the cheese-covered bit of the pastry. Then add some halved green olives, and sprinkle on some oregano.

Bake for about 20ish minutes at 200C.

Eat with salad.

Nom nom nom :)

PS this recipe originally came from a book by Donna Hay. I’ve known it off by heart for so long now I can’t remember how accurate it is.
