As easy to make as a pizza, this Alsatian- inspired tart is smothered in golden onions and garlic. Enjoy it warm or at room temperature.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 6 cups sliced sweet onions, (about 2-1/2 lb/1.25 kg)
- 1/4 tsp caraway seeds
- 2 tbsp wine vinegar
- 3/4 tsp each of salt and pepper
- 2 minced cloves of garlic
- 1 lb pizza dough
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1 green onion, chopped
Preparation
In large shallow Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat; fry sliced onions, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, using mortar and pestle or back of heavy skillet, crush caraway seeds; add to pan along with vinegar, salt, pepper and garlic. Cook, scraping up any brown bits from bottom of pan, for 1 minute. Scrape into large bowl; let cool slightly.
On lightly floured surface, roll out dough into 14-inch (35 cm) circle. Place on greased 12-inch (30 cm) pizza pan. Roll up overhang to form lip, pinching to seal.
Add egg, sour cream and green onion to cooked onion mixture; mix thoroughly. Spread evenly over dough, leaving lip uncovered. Bake in 350ðF (180ðC) oven until crust is golden and filling is set in centre, about 30 minutes. (Make-ahead: Tent with foil and keep at room temperature for up to 1 hour.) Cut into wedges.
Additional information :
Bonus: You can add nutritious onion and garlic to almost any dish. To save time later, peel a whole head of garlic at once and keep the peeled cloves in an airtight container in the refrigerator. But avoid prechopping the cloves because there is a danger of food poisoning — and freshly chopped garlic is always superior in flavour.
