This elegant cauliflower and caramelised onion tart combines earthy roasted vegetables with a rich, silky custard. The addition of truffle oil adds a luxurious depth of flavour that perfectly complements the nutty notes of Gruyère and Parmesan cheese. Golden, crisp pastry provides the ideal vessel for the sweet, slow-cooked onions and mascarpone filling, making this a truly indulgent savoury centerpiece.
Designed as a sophisticated vegetarian main or a standout lunch dish, this tart is excellent for entertaining as the elements can be prepared in advance. The combination of sweet onions and roasted cauliflower offers a wonderful balance of textures. Serve it warm with a crisp green salad and a sharp vinaigrette to cut through the richness of the Italian cream cheese and indulgent double cream.

How to make Cauliflower and Caramelized Onion Tart
Position rack in centre of oven; preheat to 218°C. Toss cauliflower with 1 tablespoon olive oil in large bowl. Spread on large rimmed baking sheet, spacing apart. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Heat remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until onion is deep golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 40 minutes. Cool slightly. DO AHEAD Can be made 1 day ahead. Store crust at room temperature. Cover and chill cauliflower and onion separately.
