| Ingredients for Onion Tart 1 lb. of Spanish onions 1 lb. of English onions 4 oz. of butter 3 eggs ½ pint of cream Pepper and salt to taste ½ lb. of Allinson fine wheatmeal Directions Slice the onions and stew them with 1½ oz. of butter without browning them. When tender let the onions cool then mix in the well beaten eggs, the cream and the seasoning. Make a pastry with the wheatmeal and the rest of the butter and use it to line a baking-tin, keeping back a small quantity of the pastry for the lattice topping. Pour the mixture of onions, eggs and cream into the pastry-lined tin. Cut the rest of the pastry into thin strips and lay these crossways over the tart, forming diamond shaped squares. Bake the tart in a moderate oven at 350f/180c/Gas 4 until golden brown. |
