  Made this last night for the starter in my dinner party, such a success I dont think you can go wrong with the combination of tastes. I also added a teaspoon of Branston Pickle just before serving which added to the flavour. Thankyou for a wonderful recipe.

  I used puff pastry rather than shortcrust. Perfect.

  Mr Fromage loved it although I thought it was a little dry - might try mixing the goats cheese with a bit of creme fraiche next time.

  I have made these for dinner parties. I added cranberry jam on top of the goats before putting them in the oven. Turned out really lovely and all my guests wanted the recipe. Try it's taste delicious and complements both the goat cheese and red onion:/)

  Yuk - thought I'd try this, as I had been craving goats cheese and the reviews were all good. Was really disappointed with the outcome. The pastry wasn't over-cooked but, because there's no sauce, the tarts are really quite dry and boring. I don't know what I expected really - from the recipe it's clear they're just a pastry case with a bit of red onion plonked in and some melted cheese. Really not worth the effort. Next time I'll just grill the goats cheese and eat it with a little side salad, crusty bread and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
