I remember (a while ago) wanting to surprise my boyfriend (at the time) with an amazing meal when he came home from a trip. I had some ideas of my own then spoke with the executive chef at my restaurant for some more tips. The final plate came out beautifully. I did originally plate this warm tart with prosciutto wrapped prawns for him, but for obvious reasons that part is omitted.
The key is to find a puff pastry that is egg and dairy free- then simply form then into little flat-bottom baskets. I used both yellow and red onions, steamed them, then caramelized then with red wine, sprinkle of wheat flour, and flavored the onions with fresh rosemary and thyme.
I took a red onion and wedged sections so that they still hold together and baked them at a low temp just so that the ends were starting to crisp. These I layed atop each tart for extra flavor and beautiful garnish.
Top with fresh thyme and bake until done. P.s. drizzle with a simple balsamic reduction and done.
