Hipster Moustache Millefeuille

A quirky starter for your friends! Tip: You can also cut the pastry into small squares instead of a moustache shape, or use another shaped cookie cutter!

Ingredients

  • 2 tbs oil
  • 100g diced bacon
  • 2 large (approx 300g) onions
  • 2 tbs brown sugar
  • 100 ml red wine
  • 50 ml red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbs rosemary, chopped
  • 4 sheets Pampas Butter Puff Pastry, partially thawed
  • 150g strong blue cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tsp chopped fresh or dried rosemary

Method

  1. Heat oil in a large frypan over low heat. Add the bacon and fry until crisp. Take out, leaving the fat in the pan. Set bacon aside.
  2. Add the onions and a good pinch of salt and cook very slowly for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent them from catching.
  3. When onions are softened and golden, add sugar, red wine, vinegar and rosemary. Cook onion over low heat for a further 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sticky and caramelised. Stir through bacon then set aside.
  4. Preheat oven to 220°C. Lay sheets flat on baking paper and cut out moustache shapes either using a cutter or a small knife. Place two moustaches on top of each other on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until puffed up and golden.
  5. Cool a little then cut in half lengthways and fill bottom piece with bacon – onion jam and crumbled blue cheese. Top with remaining puff and serve as an entree on a platter or chopping board.
