Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups frozen chopped onions, thawed
1 tablespoon sugar
Kosher salt
4 ounces goat cheese, room temperature
1 large egg
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon freshly chopped thyme leaves
1 (14-ounce) box refrigerated pie crust

Steps:

  • In a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat, add the oil and butter. When the butter is melted, add the onions, sugar, and salt, to taste. Cook until the onions begin to brown. Adjust the heat to low and cook slowly, turning often, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the onions from the heat and set aside to cool.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a bowl combine the goat cheese, egg, cream, and thyme. Pour the mixture into a small resealable plastic food storage bag. Snip off a corner of the bag to use it for piping.
  • Lay the pie crusts out flat on a clean surface and with a 2 1/2-inch round cutter cut out 12 circles from each crust. Press them into the cups of the mini-muffin tin. Fill each cup 1/2 way with the cooled onions. Pipe the cheese mixture on top of the onions, filling the cups. Bake the tarts until the filling is set, about 15 to 20 minutes. Let the tarts cool slightly, and then remove them from the muffin tin and serve.

Yield Makes about 32 large or 64 small hors d'oeuvres

Number Of Ingredients 13

For pastry dough
1 1/4 sticks (10 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 to 4 tablespoons ice water
3 onions (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
2 tablespoons olive oil
pie weights or raw rice for weighting shells
10 ounces soft mild goat cheese (about 1 heaping cup), softened
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup sour cream
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Make dough:
  • Cut butter into bits and in a bowl with a pastry blender or in a food processor blend or pulse together with flour and salt until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 2 tablespoons ice water and toss with a fork or pulse until incorporated. Add enough remaining ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork or pulsing to incorporate, to form a dough. On a work surface smear dough with heel of hand in 3 or 4 forward motions to make dough easier to work with. Divide dough in half and pat each half into a rectangle, about 6 by 3 inches. Chill rectangles, wrapped separately in plastic wrap, at least 1 hour and up to 1 week.
  • Thinly slice onions and in a large skillet cook with salt to taste in oil, covered, over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes, or until softened. Cook onions, uncovered, stirring, until golden and any liquid in skillet is evaporated.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • On a lightly floured surface roll out 1 dough rectangle into a 16 x 6-inch rectangle and fit it into a 13 1/2 x 4 x 1-inch tart pan with a removable fluted rim. Roll a rolling pin over pastry to trim it flush with top of rim and prick bottom of shell in several places with a fork. Make 1 more tart shell in another tart pan in same manner.
  • Line shells with foil and fill with pie weights or raw rice. Bake shells in middle of oven 10 minutes. Carefully remove foil and weights or rice and bake shells until pale golden, about 5 minutes more.
  • While shells are baking, whisk together goat cheese, butter, and sour cream until smooth and whisk in eggs until combined well. Season custard with salt and pepper.
  • Spread onions evenly in shells and pour custard over onions. Sprinkle thyme over custard and bake tarts in middle of oven 20 minutes, or until puffed and golden. Cool tarts in pans on racks (filling will deflate). Tarts may be made 2 days ahead, cooled completely in pans, and chilled, covered, in pans. Reheat tarts in pans, uncovered, in a 350°F. oven about 15 minutes to crisp crusts. Remove rims from pans.
  • Cut tarts crosswise into 3/4-inch-wide slices to make about 32 hors d'oeuvres and, if desired, halve slices crosswise to make about 64 hors d'oeuvres. Serve tarts warm or at room temperature.

Yield Serves 2 as a first course

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large onion
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 cup water
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 puff pastry sheet (from a 17 1/4-ounce package frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed according to package instructions)
1 ounce soft mild goat cheese at room temperature
Garnish: fresh thyme sprigs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F. and butter a baking sheet. Cut onion into very thin slices. In a heavy skillet heat butter over moderately high heat until foam subsides and sauté onion, stirring occasionally, until golden. Add water and deglaze skillet, scraping up any brown bits and cooking until water is evaporated. Stir in thyme and cook mixture until onion is deep golden.
  • While onion is cooking, cutting lengthwise along a fold line, cut off one third of pastry sheet, about 10 by 3 inches, and reserve remaining pastry for another use. Halve pastry strip crosswise and transfer pieces to baking sheet. Prick pastry all over with a fork and bake in middle of oven until deep golden, about 12 minutes. Transfer a pastry piece with a spatula to each of 2 plates and immediately press down centers to form an indentation for goat cheese and onion. Spread goat cheese in middle of pastry pieces and top with caramelized onion.
  • Garnish tarts with fresh thyme sprigs and serve immediately.

ONION & GOAT'S CHEESE TARTE TATINS



Onion & goat's cheese tarte tatins image

Individual tarte Tatin-style bakes with puff pastry, caramelised onions, thyme and ash goat's cheese make a sumptuous vegetarian lunch or dinner party starter

Provided by Tom Kerridge

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

100g golden caster sugar
50ml cider vinegar
vegetable oil , for frying
3 large white onions , halved
6 thyme sprigs , plus extra picked thyme leaves to serve
320g sheet all-butter ready-rolled puff pastry
150g ash goat's cheese log, sliced into six discs

Steps:

  • Line a baking tray with baking parchment. Put the sugar in a heavy-based saucepan and melt over a medium heat. Cook to a dark caramel, occasionally swirling the pan gently to help melt any remaining sugar and get an even colour. Add the vinegar, stir to combine, and pour into the tray, spreading it out. Leave to cool.
  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Add a splash of oil to an ovenproof frying pan over a medium-high heat. Lay the onions cut-side down and fry until blackened and just starting to burn, about 5 mins. Add the thyme sprigs, then transfer to the oven and bake for 25 mins. Once the onions are tender, remove from the pan. Space them out evenly, cut-side down, on the caramel and leave to cool.
  • Once the onions are cool, cut the pastry into six equal discs, each large enough to cover an onion half. Cover the onions with the pastry, tucking it under slightly. Put the tray in the fridge for 1 hr so that the pastry firms up a bit.
  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Bake the onion tarts for 20 mins, then reduce heat to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and bake for 10 mins more.
  • Remove from the oven and leave to cool. Once cool enough to handle, turn the tarts so the onions are now facing up. Lay a slice of goat's cheese on top of each and bake for a further 10 mins. Remove from the oven and sprinkle over a few thyme leaves to serve.

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your tartlets. Look for ripe onions, creamy goat cheese, and flaky puff pastry.
  • Sauté the onions properly: Caramelizing the onions will bring out their natural sweetness and depth of flavor. Cook them slowly over medium heat until they are golden brown and slightly softened.
  • Use a good quality puff pastry: The puff pastry is the base of the tartlets, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a brand that is made with all-butter and has a good rise.
  • Don't overfill the tartlets: The tartlets will puff up during baking, so don't overfill them with filling. Otherwise, they will spill over and make a mess.
  • Bake the tartlets until they are golden brown: The tartlets are done baking when they are golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Keep an eye on them so that they don't overcook.
