Ingredients

  • 2 medium white onions
  • 150 g goats cheese
  • 320 g Jus-Rol puff pastry ready rolled sheet
  • 150 g rocket
  • 1 egg

Instructions

  • Begin by caramelising your onions:
    Peel and slice your 2 medium white onions into medium sized slices. In a wide shallow non-stick pan, heat up 1 tablespoon of olive oil on a medium heat.
    Once the oil is hot, add in your sliced onions and stir to ensure they're all coated in the oil. Stir every 3-4 minutes or so to ensure they don't burn and adjust the heat if necessary.
    After 8 minutes, add in half a teaspoon of salt and stir well.Half way through, you may need to add a splash of water to the pan if you feel that your onions are drying out!
    Continue to cook your onions for 35-45 minutes, they should have browned by now and with lots of stirring they should be brown but not burnt! Set aside for later.
  • Slice you goats cheese into evenly sized rounds and set aside for later.
  • Pre-heat your oven to 180°
  • Unroll the pastry and transfer it to a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
  • Score a 1-inch thick border with knife so that you have a distinction between the crust and area for the filling. Prick the centre multiple times with a fork, this is to prevent it from puffing up in the oven.
  • Time to add your toppings onto the pastry! Evenly distribute the caramelised onions and goats cheese over the pricked centre.
  • For the egg wash, whisk one egg and brush onto the outside border of your pastry with a pastry brush.
  • Transfer your tart into the oven and bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven once golden and allow to cool for 2-3 minutes then enjoy!
