Tartelettes oignons caramelises fromage chevre

Caramelized Onion and Goat Cheese Pie

Prep Time:15 minutes
Cook Time:45 minutes
Total Time:1 hour
Course: Appetizer, Starter
Cuisine: Française
Servings: 10 min pies

Ingredients

  • 1 roll puff pastry or homemade tart dough
  • 3 medium onions (I prefer red)
  • 100 g goat's cheese or fresh goat's cheese
  • 2 tablespoons good balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar or honey
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Back pepper
  • 1 egg yolk + 1 teaspoon milk for brushing

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 200°C.
  • Mince the onions and sauté in a saucepan over low heat with the olive oil and 1 or 2 tablespoons of water for about 15 minutes.
    When they start to brown, deglaze with the balsamic vinegar and add the brown sugar.
    Stir well and leave to caramelize for a further ten minutes, making sure the onions don't stick.
    Set aside.
  • Roll out the dough and, using a small conical glass, cut out discs, then place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
    Press the bottom of the glass against the center of the pastry discs to create a border.
    Prick the center with a fork, otherwise the pastry will push the filling out of the tartlets as it puffs up.
  • Mix the egg yolk and milk, then brush the edges of the pastry discs with the mixture.
  • Place a tablespoonful of caramelized onions in the center of the discs. Place a slice of goat's cheese on top and season with pepper.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. The edges should be golden brown.
