Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 40 minutes
Serves: 2-4

Ingredients
50g (2oz) butter
1 tbsp. oil
5 red onions, peeled and cut in half horizontally
Handful fresh chopped thyme
100g (4oz) Havarti cheese. Sliced
450g pack ready rolled puff pastry
Method
1. Fry the onions gently in the oil and butter for 5-7 minutes until golden and softened. Add the thyme to the pan and turn of the heat.
2. Arrange the onions and thyme flat side down in a 17.5 cm (7”) loose-bottomed sandwich tin.
3. Lay the Harvarti slices over the onions. Cut the pastry slightly larger than the tin and lay over the onions and cheese, making sure that the edges are well tucked in.
4. Bake in a preheated oven at Gas 7 /220C/425F for approx. 20 minutes until well risen and golden brown.
5. Allow to cool a little, then turn out onto a plate so that the onions are uppermost.
