Onion, cheese and tomato tart

We had a beautiful sunny Spring day in Bath yesterday and I wanted to cook something summery for dinner. I had some puff pastry in the freezer and lots of onions, so I built this tart around those ingredients. You could change the cheese and omit the eggs and instead use mozzarella, anchovies and black olives, salami and smoked cheddar, roasted peppers and Parma ham - basically it's a whatever you've got in your fridge tart.

Steps
- 1
First you need to caramelise the onions. Place in a large pan with a splash of olive oil and stir to coat. Place on a very low heat and cover with the lid. You need to cook them for 30-45 minutes, stirring every so often, until they are golden.

Take the lid off the onions and raise the heat slightly for the last 10 minutes, I don't like them too dark and sweet, but you can carry on until they're really caramelised if you want to. When they're sweet and sticky add a knob of butter and a dash of white wine vinegar.
- 3
Preheat the oven to 180C/Gas 4. Unroll the sheet of pastry and trim all the edges very thinly, this helps the layers of pastry to rise. Place on a baking tray and use a sharp knife to cut a border all the way round for the crust. Don't cut all the way through.

Cook the pastry until puffed up and golden, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and straight away cut through the marked out border.
- 5
Then push the puffed up centre down to form a raised edge and indented middle.
- 6
Spread the caramelized onions over the base, then crumble over the feta cheese. Scatter the chopped oregano over.
- 7
Add the tomato slices then drizzle the egg and cheese mixture into the tart and add some more black pepper. Cook in the oven for about 20-25 minutes until the cheese topping is golden and the tomatoes are cooked.
- 8
Eat the tart warm with a big leafy salad. We ate the whole thing between 2 of us, but it would serve 3 or even 4 if you serve with sauteed potatoes and more salad.
