CARAMELIZED ONION AND GOAT CHEESE TARTS

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.

POTATO, GOAT CHEESE AND CARAMELIZED ONION TATIN

Steps:

• To make the tatin, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch round gratin dish. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter and 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cumin and cook until golden brown and soft, stirring from time to time, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in the skillet, add the potatoes and toss to coat. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and pepper. Layer the potatoes in the prepared dish. Bake until tender, about 40 minutes. Set aside for 15 minutes.
• Top the potatoes with the goat cheese and then the onion mixture. Place the pastry on a work surface and press out the seams. Cut out a 9-inch circle and pierce it all over with a fork. Place the pastry over the cheese.
• Meanwhile, to make the sauce, melt 2 teaspoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Refrigerate the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Add the mushrooms, shallots, garlic, thyme, tarragon and basil and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the Madeira and dry red wine and simmer until reduced by half, about 6 minutes. Add the broth and simmer until reduced to 3/4 cup, about 20 minutes.
• Increase oven heat to 400 degrees. Bake the tatin until the pastry is brown, about 25 minutes. Meanwhile, bring the sauce to a simmer. Cut the butter into small pieces. Remove the pan from the heat and gradually whisk in the butter pieces. Remove the thyme sprig.
• To serve, run a small knife around the edge of the tatin to loosen. Invert onto a plate and cut into 4 wedges. Place 1 wedge on each of 4 plates and spoon some of the sauce around each one. Serve immediately.

MASHED POTATOES WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a large pot of cold, salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork tender.
• In the meantime, melt 2 tablespoons of butter and the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add onions, 1/4 teaspoon salt and the sugar and stir frequently, until onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 30-40 minutes. If the onions get too dry, add a small amount of water to deglaze the pan. Set aside.
• While the potatoes and onions are cooking, heat the half and half, garlic, bay leaf, and remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
• When done, drain the potatoes and return them to the hot, dry pot. Stir them over low heat for 2 minutes until they are dry. Pass the potatoes through a ricer into a large bowl.
• Discard the garlic and bay leaf from cream. Gently stir in the hot cream a little at a time until the potatoes are smooth and creamy. You may not need to use all of the liquid.
• Set aside a small amount of the caramelized onions for garnish and stir the remaining onions into the mashed potatoes. Crumble the goat cheese into the potatoes and stir to combine well. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
• Spoon the mashed potatoes into a serving bowl and garnish with the remaining caramelized onions. Serve hot.

ONION & GOAT'S CHEESE TARTE TATINS

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.

CARAMELIZED ONION AND GOAT CHEESE TARTS

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.
