Bumping the post, because I am cooking this week for friends, and they’ve been begging me for a pissaladière. Sharing food, sharing the love, here’s the recipe.
Ingredients:
- a boatload of onions (about a 1kg should do, but if you do more, you can have an extra thick layer on it, or keep it as some sort of onion-y jam/spread for later, only winning there)
- some herbs (provençal/italian mix will do)
- some garlic (a head will do)
- olive oil
- pizza dough (fresh is best, but I am lazy. I have also tried with pastry dough and it was nice too)
Utensils:
- a pan
- an oven dish or flat oven tray
Instructions:
- cut your onions (strips is best/prettier) and garlic (can also be crushed)
- dump it in the pan with some oil.
- add the herbs (maybe some salt if you want)
- cook on a low fire for (handgesture) hours, or until they are translucent/soft (you can speed up the process on a medium fire, but I like to torture myself by having my house smell like onions all afternoon)
- unwrap the dough on the dish/tray and dumb the cooked onion on top (add olives and/or anchovies for pretty look)
- put in the oven until the dough is cooked (follow the temperature/length of cooking from the package, but a 400F/200C for 25min or so should be fine)
Done. Go burn your tongue and enjoy!
Also good, adding anchovies to the pan before the onions.
And is also good cold/reheated!
