Goat’s Cheese, Sticky Walnut and Caramelised Onion Tarts (v)
Sweet, caramelised onions, earthy thyme and goat’s cheese on crispy flaky pastry – it’s a winning combination. Adding sticky walnuts takes them to a next-level starter or a light lunch when served with a salad.
STICKY WALNUTS
⅓ cup caster sugar
1 tablespoon water
½ cup walnut pieces
TARTS
500 grams ready-rolled puff pastry (I used Paneton Flaky Pastry)

350 grams rind-on goat’s cheese (I used 2 packets of Cranky Goat The Lynton)
olive oil for brushing
sea salt and ground pepper
sprigs thyme
Caramelised Onions (see recipe right)
STICKY WALNUTS: Line a baking tray with baking paper.
Preheat the oven to 190°C fan bake.
Put the sugar and water in a small saucepan and slowly bring to the boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Cook
