Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas 6. Heat the butter, sugar and sherry vinegar in an ovenproof pan (about 24cm diameter) until the sugar has melted. Add the shallots, cut-side down, and fry gently for 5-6 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and leave it all to cool for 5 minutes.

Step 2

Add the roasted vegetables and the chestnuts to the pan, turning in the buttery caramel so they are well coated, then making sure they sit in an even layer on the base.

Step 3

Unroll the pastry and roll out a little further. Cut a circle just bigger than the diameter of the pan and then lay this over the vegetables, tucking the edges down the sides of the pan around the veg. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is risen and golden. Leave to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.

Step 4

To serve, place a plate over the top of the pan and up-end. Scatter the thyme leaves over the top.
