Method

Preheat your oven to 140C Fan / 160C / 425F / Gas Mark 1. Peel your shallots and place them whole in a roasting tin. In a bowl mix your Yorkshire Rapeseed Oil, balsamic vinegar and brown sugar and pour over your shallots in th roasting tin. Season and toss to ensure the shallots are fully coated. Pop in the oven for 1 hour 30 minutes, or until totally softened. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

Whilst the shallots are roasting, make the base by blitzing the biscuits along with the melted butter in a food processor until formed into a crumb like mixture. Divide the mixture evenly between six 10cm open rings or loose bottomed tart tins and press down firmly until you have an even layer.

To make the filling, place the fresh herbs and spring onions into the food processor and blitz for a couple of seconds before adding the goat's cheese, Yorkshire Mayonnaise, seasoning and continue to blitz until you have fully combined all the ingredients. Spread the mixture carefully and evenly across each cheesecake base before placing in the fridge for at least one hour to firm up.

When ready to serve, remove the open rings, place the shaved beetroot slices on top of the cheesecakes and finish off with a couple of shallots and a scattering of fresh thyme and a drizzle of oil and balsamic onto the plate to decorate.

This dish can be made in advance and be kept in the fridge until ready to serve.
