Onion Tart

This is very simple but looks pretty if you use red onions (you can use white too, of course) and it is especially good with goat’s cheese on top. This time, though, I just used mozzarella. I’ve also done it with cheddar. But you don’t need cheese at all, if you prefer.

Ingredients:
1 block puff pastry (about 250 g)
3 large red onions or 5 small ones
2 garlic cloves
oil
1 tbsp honey
1 dash balsamic vinegar
100-200 g black olives (depending on how you feel about olives)
black pepper
1 tsp mint
cheese, optional

Instructions:
1. Roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle and put it on a baking tray.
2. Dice the onions and garlic and fry them lightly in the oil. Add the honey and the balsamic vinegar and continue frying until caramelised and they have a slightly golden hue.
3. Chop the olives.
4. Spread the onions and olives on the puff pastry. Season with black pepper and mint. Add pieces of cheese, if desired.
5. Bake for about 20 minutes at 180 C.
