Preheat oven to 200ºC. Unroll the pastry and place on a lined baking tray. Score a 1cm border around the edge of the pastry; place in the fridge.

Heat a frying pan, add the tomatoes and cook for 3-4 minutes. Add the balsamic and sugar, cook for a further 3–4 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.Spread the onions onto pastry, leaving the 1cm border around the edge.

Top the onions with the tomatoes and season well. Bake for 30 minutes.
