TOMATO & CARAMELISED ONION TART TATIN

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a frying pan until the butter has melted. Cook the onion over a medium heat for about 10 minutes until beautifully golden, stirring often. Stir in the sugar and cook for another couple of minutes. Tip the onion and juices into a bowl and set aside. Preheat the oven to 200C/gas 6/fan 180C.
• For the pastry, rub the butter into the flour to make fine crumbs. Stir in the parmesan, thyme and a pinch of salt. Add the egg yolk and 2 tbsp cold water, then mix to make a dough. Wrap in cling film.
• For the tomatoes, heat the butter and oil in a 20cm tart tatin tin on the hob until quite hot. Stir in the sugar and garlic, then put in the plum tomatoes cut-side down with a few thyme sprigs, and sizzle for no more than 1 minute. Scatter in the whole cherry tomatoes and tuck in a bit more thyme. Take off the heat and spread the onions on top. Season with salt and pepper.
• Roll out the pastry until it's slightly bigger than the top of the tin. Lay it over the onions and tuck any excess down the sides.
• Bake on a baking sheet for 25 minutes until golden. Cool for 5 minutes, invert a plate over the top and upturn the tart onto it. Scatter with extra thyme and black pepper.

ENDIVE TARTE TATIN WITH BURRATA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a lightly floured work surface and using a floured rolling pin, roll out pastry to a 12-inch square about 1/8-inch thick. Transfer to a sheet tray and keep refrigerated until ready to use.
• In a 12-inch high-sided ovenproof skillet, melt butter over medium-low. Add 2 tablespoons of the sugar and stir until mostly dissolved. Add endive, season with salt and pepper, and cook, turning occasionally, until coated in the butter and wilted along the edges, 5 minutes. Arrange endive cut side down, cover and cook until softened and golden, 10 minutes longer. Carefully flip over endive, sprinkle the cut side with the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar, then turn over again so they are cut side down in a single layer. Drizzle over lemon juice, scatter over chives, and season with salt and pepper. Top endive with the pastry, tucking the edges into the sides of the skillet. Prick pastry all over with a fork.
• Bake until pastry is puffed and deeply golden, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes. Run a knife along the edge of the pastry to loosen it from the pan. Place a serving plate over the pan. Using oven mitts, grip the plate and pan tightly together and swiftly flip over. Gently lift away the skillet and replace any endive that may have moved out of place.
• Cut tart into wedges and transfer to plates. Top each piece with some burrata, and garnish with chives and black pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.
