2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil leaves

Recipe
1. Heat oil in a
heavy-based saucepan over medium heat. Add onion. Cover. Cook, stirring
occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes or until softened. Add sugar and vinegar.
Cook, stirring constantly, for 5 to 6 minutes or until caramelised. Transfer to
a heatproof bowl. Set aside for 20 minutes to cool.
2. Preheat oven to
180°C/160°C fan-forced. Grease a 12-hole, ¹⁄³-cup-capacity muffin pan. Line
holes with 5cm rounds of baking paper.
3. Sift flour and
baking powder into a bowl. Rub butter into flour mixture until mixture
resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add parsley and basil. Season with salt and pepper.
Stir to combine. Make a well in centre of mixture. Add egg and milk. Using a
flat-bladed knife, stir until a sticky dough forms. Turn out onto a lightly
floured surface. Knead gently until just smooth.
4. Using a lightly
floured rolling pin, roll out dough to a 22cm x 32cm rectangle. Spread over
onion mixture, leaving a 1cm border on 1 long side. Sprinkle with fetta.
Starting at opposite side to border, roll up dough. Trim ends and discard. Cut
into 12 even slices. Place 1 slice in each prepared muffin pan hole and lightly
press. Brush with milk.
5. Bake for 25
minutes or until golden and cooked through. Stand in pan for 5 minutes. Serve
sprinkled with parsley.
