This recipe comes from one of my favorite food blogs Passionate About Baking. and is a great way to use the beautiful cherry tomatoes over ripening in my kitchen counter!
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Ingredients:
■ puff pastry
■2 red onions, sliced very fine {approx 150gm}
■1 tbsp butter
■1 tbsp olive oil
■150-200gm cherry tomatoes, halved
■ Few leaves of fresh basil chiffonade
■1 clove garlic, minced
■1 tsp white vinegar
■1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
■Sea salt
■Freshly ground pepper
Directions:
1.Roll out the pastry into a 10.5″ X 10.5″ square. With a pizza cutter/pastry wheel, trim the edges and cut into 2.5″ squares {8 small}
2.Score a tiny border about 1/4 cm along the inside edge, taking care not to cut right through. Place on parchment lined baking tray and chill for about 30 minutes, until the topping is ready.
3.Gently sauté the finely sliced onions in 1tsp butter and 1 tbsp olive oil until golden brown and caramelised. Reserve in a bowl.
4.Toss the halved cherry tomatoes with the basil, garlic, 1 tbsp olive oil, vinegar, salt & pepper. Taste and adjust flavours. Set aside for a little while for the flavours to mature, about 10-15 minutes.
5.Preheat oven to 200C.
6.Take pastry out of fridge. Divide the caramelised onions between the bases, ensuring they stay within the scored edges.
7.Give the tomatoes a good stir, and top the onions with about 5-6 halves each, cut side up. Sprinkle with a little sea salt.
8.Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden and puffy.
9.Serve warm or at room temperature.
