Ingredients
- 1 piece puff pastry sheet
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 medium yellow onion
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 4 medium baby potatoes
- 6 ounces fresh goat cheese
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Thaw the puff pastry sheet according to package instructions if frozen.
Step 2
Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Slice the yellow onions thinly and add them to the skillet with a pinch of salt. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring frequently, until the onions are soft and caramelized. Add the sugar during the last 5 minutes of cooking. Set aside.
Step 3
Wash and thinly slice the baby potatoes into rounds about 1/8-inch thick. Parboil the slices in salted water for 4-5 minutes until just tender. Drain and set aside.
Step 4
Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases. Transfer it to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 5
In a mixing bowl, combine the goat cheese, heavy cream, egg, thyme, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth and spread this mixture evenly over the puff pastry, leaving about 1 inch of border around the edges.
Step 6
Layer the caramelized onions over the goat cheese base, followed by the parboiled potato slices. Overlap the potato slices slightly for a decorative effect. Sprinkle the parmesan cheese evenly on top.
Step 7
Fold the edges of the puff pastry up and over the filling to create a rustic border. Brush the edges with a beaten egg for a golden finish.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the tart is puffed and golden brown.
Step 9
Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
