  1. Preheat your oven to 200┬░C (180┬░C fan/gas mark 6).
  2. Peel and finely chop half an onion.
  3. In a small frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened and golden, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  4. Grate the cheddar cheese.
  5. In a bowl, mix the cooked onions and grated cheddar cheese. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
  6. Unroll the puff pastry and cut a 10x10 cm square. Place the onion and cheese mixture in the center of the pastry square.
  7. Fold the pastry over to form a triangle, pressing the edges together to seal. You can use a fork to crimp the edges.
  8. Brush the beaten egg over the top of the pastry to give it a nice golden color when baked.
  9. Place the pasty on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and puffed.
  10. Allow the pasty to cool slightly before serving.
