Passover French Onion Tart by Irene Yager
I make this tart every year for my family and friends at Passover.
It is always a great hit! I came up with the recipe four years ago for the first Manischewitz Cook-Off, when I was thrilled to be chosen as a semi-finalist.

 |
Canola oil, for sautéing |
| 3 |
 |
medium Spanish onions, thinly sliced |
| 1 1/2 |
 |
cups matzo farfel (matzo broken into small pieces) |
| 2 |
 |
large eggs, well beaten |
| 1/2 |
 |
teaspoon salt |
| 1/4 |
 |
teaspoon black pepper |
| 1 |
 |
cup cherry tomatoes |
| 1/4 |
 |
cup grated Parmesan cheese |
| 1 |
 |
tablespoon chopped fresh parsley |
| 2 |
 |
teaspoons chopped fresh thyme |
| |
| 1. |
|
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray an 8-inch tart pan with nonstick spray. |
 |
| 2. |
|
Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes. |
 |
| 3. |
|
Meanwhile, to make the crust, combine the matzo farfel, eggs, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl until blended. Evenly press the mixture onto the bottom of th prepared pan. Bake 7 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool slightly. |
 |
| 4. |
|
Spoon the onion mixture evenly into the crust. Arrange the tomatoes in a ring over the onions. Sprinkle with the cheese, parsley, and thyme. |
 |
| 5. |
|
Bake, uncovered, until the filling is hot and the tomatoes are soft to the touch, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature. |
