This is quite rustic and looks oh, so delicious!

Onion Tart

Laura Calder

Yield: 6

Ingredients:

Â 1 pre-baked 9-inch/23-cm round of pastry

Â 1/2 cup sour cream

Â 1 x small onion, very thinly sliced

Â 3 to 4 slices bacon, cut into Â¼" pieces

Â Freshly ground black pepper

Â Fleur de sel, or Kosher salt

Directions:

1. Heat the oven to 450Â°F/230Â°C. Spread over the sour cream, going all the way out to the edges. Scatter over the onion slices and the bacon. Grind over black pepper and sprinkle over fleur de sel.

Add the onion, bell pepper and celery; saute for about 4 minutes. Add the sausage and cook another 3 minutes, then add the sweet potatoes. Add the beef stock, Rotel, black-eyed peas, tomato juice, cabbage, salt and pepper; stir, bring up to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender.

If you prefer a milder version, simply substitute one can of regular diced tomatoes, undrained, in place of the Rotel and use a milder smoked sausage.

Sift flour, 1/4 cup sugar, salt and baking powder into a bowl. Cut in butter, using two knives, until the consistency of corn meal. Pack into an ungreased square pan (8 x 8 x 2 inches) pressing against bottom and sides. Arrange the peach halves, cut side up, in three rows of three or three rows of four, depending upon the size of the fruit. In a small bowl combine the 3/4 cup of sugar with the cinnamon. Sprinkle sugar evenly over the fruit. Bake for 15 minutes. In a small bowl heat the egg yolks, stir in the heavy cream. Remove the Kuchen from the oven after the first baking period.
