Fry sliced onions in olive oil for one minute then add brown sugar to caramelise.

Simmer with vinegar, red wine, and herbs for 25 minutes until jam-like and chill.

Brush pastry with eggwash, top with marmalade and cheese, then wrap into secure parcels.

Heat vegetable oil in a large pan to 170°C.

Combine salad leaves, avocado, pear, and celery in a bowl and season.

Whisk mustard, honey, balsamic, and oil into a dressing and toss with salad and walnuts.

Fry parcels for 2 minutes until golden, drain on paper, and serve over the salad.
