Instructions to make Smoked Cheese & Caramalised Red Onion Tartlets:

1. Preheat your oven to 180 (fan). Remove your pastry from the fridge and leave to come up to room temperature. Gently unfold it out flat leaving it on the parchment backing paper. Using a sharp knife score into neat and even squares. The sheet should make approx 18-24 puff squares. Once they are scored out, take the knife and gently score a frame on each one around the inside edges being careful not to go right through the pastry. Gently pierce a couple of holes in the center of each square.
2. Heat a frying pan over a medium high heat and add the oil. Once hot add the onions. Stir to coat in the oil. Fry until starting to soften then turn the heat down to medium. Season well with salt and pepper.
3. Once the onions have softened down sprinkle over half of the smoked grated cheese into the pan plus the milk. Turn the heat down to low, and whilst stirring occasionally reduce down until the milk has fully evaporated off and you're left with a thick cheesy caramalised onion mixture. Leave on a very low heat to keep warm.
4. Take tiny spoonfuls of the cheesy onion mixture and place into the centre of each small pastry square. Take the remaining grated smoked cheese and place some over the top then bake at 180 for 12-15 minutes until risen, golden and cooked through. Leave to cool while you make the dipping sauce by combining the ingredients shown.
5. Serve up to your guests whilst either still a little warm, or if made ahead have them cold, enjoy! :)
