Method

Preheat the oven to gas 4, 180°C, fan 160°C. Heat the oil in an ovenproof frying pan over a medium heat. Add all the shallots, season and cook for 10 mins, stirring occasionally until beginning to brown. Add the butter and transfer to the oven.
Roast for 10 mins, then scoop out the sliced shallots and set aside. Roast the halved shallots for 10 mins more or until golden and caramelised. Set aside.
Meanwhile, toast the baton slices. Spread a little of the goat's cheese over each slice, spoon over the caramelised shallots and top with the thyme leaves; season with black pepper. These crostini can be served warm or cold.
