Method

  1. 1

    Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large pan and cook the onions with a pinch of salt over a low heat for 35-40 minutes, stirring often, until soft, sticky and deep golden.

  2. 2

    Stir in the thyme leaves and leave to cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Heat the oven to 200C (180C fan, gas 6) and unroll the puff pastry onto a lined baking tray, scoring a border 1cm from the edge.

  4. 4

    Spread the caramelised onions evenly inside the border.

  5. 5

    Arrange the anchovy fillets in a lattice pattern over the onions and dot with the black olives.

  6. 6

    Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and bake for 20-25 minutes until the pastry is puffed and golden.

  7. 7

    Cut into squares to serve.
