Sticky Toffee Tart with brown butter

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: unsalted butter, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour and set within reach of the stove.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the yellow onion in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the sticky toffee and let it maple, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the black pepper along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Pour in the vegetable stock, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Off the heat, brighten it up with a drizzle of olive oil and a final crack of pepper.
7. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
