Method

  • step 1

    For the onions: Makes 600g, which is 3 batches. Prep time 5 mins, cook time 30 mins. Melt the butter in a large, deep frying pan and stir through the onions. Cover with a lid and cook gently for about 10 mins, until softened. Remove lid, add sugar, then cook 15-20 mins, stirring, until all of the liquid has evaporated and onions have turned golden. Divide into 3 batches to make the recipes, right. Will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 1 month.

  • step 2

    Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Cut the pastry into 4 rectangles and place on a baking sheet. Mark a border 1cm in from the edge of the pastry with a sharp knife. Spoon the onions into the middle, smooth then top with the cheese and thyme. Drizzle with oil and bake for 15-20 mins, until the cheese has melted and the pastry has risen and is golden brown.

Absolutely delicious, made this for a dinner party, everyone loved it. Have it as a main for dinner this evening with a light salad.

question

Can you freeze completed tarts.

Hi, we'd recommend freezing them before baking for best results. Defrost in the fridge overnight then bake as per the recipe. You can also freeze them once baked (just defrost and reheat in the oven, although they may go a little dry). Best wishes, BBC Good Food.

Quoted prep and cooking times at the top of the recipe are wrong. Onions takes 50 mins and then the tart takes 20 mins. The method is also wrong as surely step 2 has to be completed before step 1 can be done?

this is a family favourite in our house! so easy to make and the flavour is lovely! we've made it for a lunch snack and as a main with a rocket salad and sliced steak.
