Extra tips

1. 1You can season with any herbs or spices you like.
2. 2Feel free to swap the red onion for yellow or sweet onions.
3. 3I used filo pastry because it's so light and delicate, but you can experiment with other types of pastry if you prefer.
4. 4I don't add salt because I love the natural sweetness of the onion paired with the cheese.
