Ingredients
Scale
Sweet Potatoes
2 medium sweet potatoes
Feta Cheese
200g crumbled feta cheese
Onions
2 large onions
Puff Pastry
1 sheet of puff pastry
Olive Oil
2 tablespoons olive oil
Fresh Herbs
Optional: Fresh parsley or chives for garnish
Instructions
Prepare the Ingredients: Start by peeling and slicing the sweet potatoes into thin rounds. This ensures they cook evenly and blend beautifully with the other ingredients.
Caramelise the Onions: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until they become golden brown and sweet, about 20-25 minutes. This step is crucial for developing the rich flavor.
Assemble the Tart: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the puff pastry and place it in a tart pan. Layer the sweet potato slices, caramelised onions, and crumbled feta cheese artfully on top.
Bake the Tart: Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes or until the pastry is golden and flaky. The aroma will be irresistible!
Notes
Slice Evenly: Ensure your sweet potatoes are sliced uniformly for even cooking.
Don’t Rush the Onions: Take your time caramelising the onions for the best flavor.
Use Cold Pastry: Keep your puff pastry cold until you’re ready to bake for maximum flakiness.
Experiment with Spices: Feel free to add nutmeg or cumin for an extra flavor dimension.
Let It Rest: Allow the tart to cool slightly before slicing to maintain its shape.
