Method
- Combine the plain flour, finely chopped unsalted butter in a food processor and blitz until it resembles cake crumbs. Pour into a bowl then add the egg and combine with your hands until it has come together. Knead for 2 minutes then wrap in glad wrap and let rest for 2 hours in the fridge before rolling out.
- In a non-stick frying pan on high heat with vegetable oil, fry the sliced onion until it has caramelized and golden brown. Set aside to cool.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and cream until they are light and frothy. Season with salt and pepper, and add the chopped fresh thyme.
- Roll out the pastry thinly and line a fluted tart base. Blind bake this at 180c for 8-10 minutes or until slightly brown around the edges. Remove the rice then bake again for approximately 2 more minutes then let cool.
- Pour the egg and cream mix into the tart shell. Sprinkle over all the caramelized onion, then finely crumble the Danish fetta over the top.
- Bake in the 170C oven for approximately 10-15 minutes or until cooked through.
