Goat Cheese and Red Onion Tarts

Quick and easy lunch idea!

Prep time: 5 MinCook time: 20 MinTotal time: 25 Min

Ingredients

• 250g block of ready-made puff pastry - cut into two pieces
• 1 jar of red onion marmalade
• 100g of soft goat cheese
• 6 x baby plum (grape) tomatoes
• fresh thyme leaves - chopped
• rocket leaves and a few olives to serve

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 190°C or 375°F Gas 5

1. I rolled the pastry into two oblongs until they were about a quarter of an inch thick.
2. Lightly score a border of just over half an inch around the edge - take care not to slice all the way through.
3. Using a fork, lightly prick the pastry inside the border all over to prevent the pastry on the inside part from rising as much as the rest of the pastry. Place them on a non-stick baking tray.
4. Bake in a preheated oven for about 10 minutes, remove and very carefully retrace the line you made that formed the border.
5. Normally, you see in recipes where you would remove the top layer of pastry and either discard or use it as a lid. I didn't remove it, I just pushed it to the bottom to make the base thicker and more yummy.
6. Spread a good amount (to your liking) of the red onion marmalade all over the bottom and top with some goat cheese.
7. Add some halved cherry tomatoes and sprinkle with some freshly chopped thyme leaves.
8. Return to the oven for (approx) a further 10 minutes until the cheese begins to melt and the pastry takes on a light golden brown colour.
9. Remove from the oven, top with some black olives and rocket and serve immediately.
