Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

400g beetroot, peeled and cut into wedges
1 red onion, cut into wedges
1 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp honey
2 tsp cider vinegar
20g butter
5 thyme sprigs
500g block all-butter puff pastry
plain flour, for dusting
30g pecans, toasted and roughly chopped
60g vegetarian wensleydale or lancashire cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Toss the beetroot and onion with the oil, honey and vinegar, then season. Tip into a 20cm non-stick ovenproof frying pan. Cover with foil and roast in the oven for 45-50 mins until the beetroot is tender. Remove from the oven and scatter over the butter and thyme.
  • Roll the pastry out on a lightly floured surface to the thickness of a £1 coin, then cut out a circle slightly larger than the frying pan, about 25cm (you can use a dinner plate as a guide). Lay the pastry over the beetroot mixture in the pan, and tuck it in around the edge using a cutlery knife or spatula. Bake for 50-60 mins, or until golden brown and puffed up.
  • Run a knife around the edge of the pastry to loosen, then carefully invert onto a serving plate. Scatter over the pecans and cheese to finish.
