Prep: Prep: 10 minutesCook: Cook: 1 hour

Ingredients

produce
  • thyme(fresh)
  • yellow onions
dairy
  • goat cheese(fresh)
  • butter
grain
  • shortcrust pastry
pantry staple
  • sugar
  • balsamic vinegar
  • olive oil

Instructions

  1. Peel the onions and cut them in half.
  2. Melt the butter over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the sugar and mix well.
  3. Place the onions in the pan and pour in the balsamic vinegar. Add a dash of water and simmer for 30-40 minutes on medium-low heat. Turn the onions halfway through cooking.
  4. Prepare the shortcrust pastry by mixing the flour, salt, butter, water and dried thyme. Knead briefly and form into a ball. Set aside until needed.
  5. Place onion halves in the bottom of a pan dish, cut side down. Pour the caramel on top.
  6. Roll out the shortcrust pastry with a rolling pin on a lightly floured surface. Form a circle as big as your tart dish. Place the pastry dough on top of the onions.
  7. Bake for 30 minutes at 180°C (preheated oven, convection).
  8. Loosen the edges of the pie crust by running a knife along the tart pan. Place a large serving plate on the pastry crust and flip the tart all at once. Remove the tarte pan.
  9. Add crumbled fresh goat cheese and crumble a few sprigs of thyme on top.
