Step 1
For the caramelised onions and sweet potato
- Peel and slice the onions
- Heat the olive oil and melt the butter in a saucepan over medium to low heat. Add the onions and stir to coat in the oil and butter. Cook for 10 minutes until they are turning golden. Sprinkle over the salt and sugar. Stir and and then leave the onions to cook for 30 minutes more, stirring occasionally. The trick here is to leave them alone enough to brown, but not too much that they burn. You may need to lower the temperature and add a splash of water of the onions are drying out
- Whilst the onions caramelise, prep the sweet potato
- Preheat the oven to 200*C fan setting
- Peel and slice the sweet potato into slice, about ½ inch thick
- Toss the sweet potato with the thyme, olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
- Roast in the hot oven for 15 minutes, until golden on the outside and soft on the inside. Set to one side

Assemble & bake

Arrange the sweet potato on the pastry, slightly overlapping, keeping the border clear
