I've been sitting in front of the computer day in and day out looking for work, hopefully checking emails for some good news. Alas, I just land up selecting a few and mass deleting. Then this recipe mailer came in and I saw this red onion tarte tatin that just made me pull out the pen and paper and write it down. It sounded delicious and made me just want to eat it right there out of the screen. It turned out surprisingly easy to make, and met all my expectations with still a little crunch to the onions. I've never made a tarte tatin before, it was only ever something I saw on MasterChef but will definitely do again. I may just add a little less sugar next time round.
Ingredients:
125ml sugar
60ml butter
30ml water
30ml white wine vinegar
8-10 red onions, halved
3 sprigs thyme
250g puff pastry
1 egg yolk
Method:
Preheat oven to 200ºC
Melt together the sugar, butter, water and vinegar in a tarte tatin pan. Allow to come to the boil, and cook to a deep caramel colour
Arrange the onion halves along the base of the pan
Cover the layer of onions with the puff pastry, tucking the edges in underneath the onions
Brush the pastry with the egg yolk, and bake for 25-30mins, or until the pastry is golden brown
Remove from the oven, and flip the tarte tatin over onto a serving plate. Garnish with thyme and serve warm
