I cried while 'I cut up the onions and it was so worth it. Puff pastry was my first time and I had to take my time handling it. The taste was so savory and I used vegetable broth instead of beef so that vegetarian could have. This is a dish that could be made ahead of time and baked as needed. I had the tart with the raspberry salad and wanted more as did my guest. I loved that it was so easy that requests for it at a dinner party will be so easy,this is a dish that will stay in the top 10 must have for dinner party.

I was so excited to be the first to rate this, but the whole thing is bittersweet since I can't give it a full recommendation. It was fine, but nothing to shout about. I could only find regular yellow onions, but I'm not sure if that really made any difference. I made it exactly as directed, except that I couldn't get my tart nearly as large as she asks for, so the onions were a bit thick. If I ever made this again, I probably leave out an onion, or use puff pastry shells so I could get the the right onion/dough ratio.

Couldn't wait to try this after watching the episode, and it was as good as Claire promised! Followed her technique for the puff pastry without flour and struggled a bit with the rolling and shaping (didn't look as 'pretty' as hers but it baked OK and after topping with the carmelized onions, was able to pull it off. After returning to the oven to re-heat, I topped with some shaved parmesan reggiano. Served with the mixed green salad from this episode for a girlfriend lunch and they all raved! Thanks Claire! A real winner.

I saw this episode and immediately was craving it. It came together pretty easily, although it took me longer than the 40 minutes, but maybe I am slow. I pierced the center part of the pastry, but it still got fluffy, not sure what I did wrong. I made this and the salad from this episode and my husband and I loved it. Will definately make again.

Have not tried this recipe yet . I have a tip for carmelizing the onions. Slice up six really large onions , put in a slow cooker (on low with a stick of butter and cook all night long, if they are not carmelized enough to suit you,cook longer. I have added instant gravy mix mixed with water for the begining of a good French Onion Soup.
Note: you may need to put the lid ajar for the last hour or so to brown the onions. I have not made these for a few years , so play around with it until it suits you.
