Using the handle end of a wooden spoon handle, make deep indentations about 1-inch apart on top of the dough. Top with the caramelized onions and sprinkle with fresh herbs and cheeses.

• Mix flour, nigella seeds, and salt in medium bowl. Add yeast mixture and stir with wooden spoon until mixture clumps together. Add butter; mix until incorporated. Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Divide dough into 6 equal pieces; roll each into ball. Place on baking sheet; cover with plastic wrap. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep covered and refrigerate.)
• For caramelized onions:
• Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion wedges to skillet and cook without turning until beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. Carefully turn onions over; reduce heat to medium and continue to cook until onions are tender and brown, occasionally stirring gently, about 10 minutes. Add thyme and honey; cook 1 minute.

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium high heat in a large skillet.
• Add onions; cook until wilted& starting to brown.
• Add sugar, vinegar, salt& pepper.
• Reduce heat& cook gently for 15- 25 minutes or until onions are caramelized& brown.
• Cool.
• Roll pastry into a rectangle approximately 12 x 16 inches. I don't use the sheets of puff pastry - I prefer to use the 375gm package of Tenderflake Puff Pastry. I start rolling it out on my counter, then I transfer it to my baking tray (which has been lined with parchment paper) and roll the pastry to fit the tray. Since puff pastry is very "forgiving", you can "cut & paste" if necessary.
• Spread onions over pastry.
• Dot with cheese& sprinkle with chervil.
• If you are preparing this for a party, you can prepare to this point and refrigerate- then bake later.
• Bake in preheated 400F oven for 20- 25 minutes or until cheese has melted& pastry is crisp.
• When removed from the oven, it will be puffed right up but allow it to cool for 5 minutes & it will fall back down. Cut into 20 serving pieces - this is easier done with kitchen scissors instead of a knife - then cut each piece in half diagonally.
