  • Add the balsamic and thyme and bubble together.
  • STEP 3
  • Lift a slice of onion into each tart and put a slice of goat’s cheese on top, against one side of the pastry so it is off centre.
  • STEP 4
  • Bake until the goat’s cheese begins to bubble and brown a little. Drizzle with a little olive oil before serving.
