3 3/8 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 3/4 tablespoons brown sugar

1
Melt butter in pan. Add onions, salt, pepper and thyme sprig.
2
Cook on low to medium heat until onions are soft and translucent, not browned.
3
Add sugar and vinegar and continue cooking on low heat until most of the liquid is absorbed by the onions and mixture is the consistency of jam.
4
Remove thyme sprig.
5
Store in clean jars and refrigerate.
6
Great for hors d'oeuvres or as an accompaniment to hamburgers in place of relish.
7
Mix together flour and salt. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add egg and water mixture a little at a time until dough holds together. Do not knead. Leave dough to rest for at least 30 mins. Roll dough out on a floured surface to about 2 mm thick. Cut out pastry with a round cookie cutter (I used a 4 1/2 cm diameter round cookie cutter) and press into a tartlet tray with holes measuring about 4 cm in diameter. You can of course make it into whatever size you like.
