2 red onions
2 tbs brown sugar
1 tbs extra virgin olive oil
2 tsp thyme sprigs, plus extra, to serve
375g sheet frozen puff pastry, just thawed (we used Carême)
Crumbled soft goat’s cheese, to serve

Method

1.

Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Grease a large baking tray and line with baking paper.
2.

Cut onion into 1cm-thick slices, making sure the rings hold together. Place sugar on a saucer. Working with one onion slice at a time, brush with oil, then press into sugar and arrange, sugar-side down, on prepared tray. Season and sprinkle with thyme. Cover onions with pastry. Cut a few slits in pastry to let steam escape while cooking.
3.

Bake for 30 minutes, or until pastry is golden and puffed. Carefully flip tart onto a board, then peel away and discard paper. Sprinkle tarte with goat’s cheese and extra thyme and season. Cut into portions to serve.
