1)For the onions, heat the oil in a non-stick pan.

Stir really well and add the sugar, lots of seasoning and the walnuts, olives and rosemary.

Cook for 5 mins more, until soft and very golden.

This can all be prepared a few days ahead.

Bake for 10 mins until the cheese is melty.

Toss the watercress with the dressing, pile onto plates and serve the pastry on top.
