Ingredients (6 servings)
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 small eschalots, halved
7 ounces streaky bacon rashers, halved
1/4 cup caster sugar
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
9 ounces cherry truss tomatoes
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
½ ounce baby rocket or arugula
1-ounce creamy bleu cheese, crumbled
Preparation
At 392 degrees F, preheat your oven. Add and heat about half of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the eschalot, turning, for 5 minutes until soft. Transfer to a bowl. Sauté bacon for 3 minutes until crispy. Drain on a paper towel. During this time, add the sugar to a heavy-based skillet. Place over high heat. Cook until the sugar dissolves and caramelizes. Remove it from heat. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons water and vinegar. Set aside until it bubbles.
Arrange the eschalot and bacon over caramel. Drizzle half of the thyme. Layer a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the tomatoes on a tray. Drizzle with the remaining oil. Season with salt and black pepper. Cover the pan with pastry, tucking in edges to form a circle. Bake, adding tomatoes to oven halfway through cooking time, for 25 minutes until golden and puffed. Stand for 5 minutes. Flip onto a serving plate with sides. Sprinkle with the remaining thyme. Top with rocket/arugula and cheese. Serve warm with tomatoes.
