Title: Onion Pie
Post by: isi on January 26, 2010, 04:42:57 pm: Hello

In the days we live today - we sometimes have to find a way to simplify our life!
It is the Children's Football, Ballet, Gymnastics up to Daddy's Kickboxing - It's difficult to have a "normal Schedule :P
The onion cake that I make is Wonderful for 2 reasons: First because it is enjoyed by everyone here in the house and second because it can stand a lot of time in the Fridge - it is always ready to go!
Whether you like it cold or hot - satisfies the two aspects - make a nice salad, serve some fruit to finish and the Meal is Ready!

Name of Recipe:
Onion Pie

Number of People:...

Ingredients:
For the Dough:
400 grams of flour
20 grams of fresh Baker's Yeast
250ml Warm Water
1 teaspoon salt

Filling:
800 grams of Onions
250 gr of bacon to the squares
250 gr. Cheese Bar
200 gr. Cream
2 egg yolk

Add the onion cut in slices not too thin - 10 min-Temp Varoma - Reverse Spoon

Put it by side leaving it cool down

Now the Doug
Put all the ingredients into Thermomix and hitting speed :: for 4 minutes!
When completed the time-weigh the dough and put half in a plastic bag and put in the freezer! This is because I find the complet mass very thick and I think it is nicer this way!
Next time we have One dough- just need to take it out in time and make the filling ;)

Strain the dough in a 26 cm form and pull up slightly on the edges

In the meantime, the onion cooled down a bit
Wrap the grated cheese and seasoning with black pepper
Put it on the mass and finally put the mixture of cream with the yolks!

Sounds like a quiche lorraine in pizza crust - nice work.

@ trudy - I use fresh yeast - changed it in the recipe ;)
@judy - thank you for correcting me - hehehe - what a mess. I dont let the mass rest because the finishing take a Little time - the filling is not very cold and I don't want the dough to be thick!
@ thanks cookie 8)

I used dry cured bacon so added a 1tsp of olive oil when adding and sautéing the onions.I added an extra five minutes to the cooking time as I thought they were not soft enough.Be careful if you do this as mine caught slightly on the bottom of the TM jug. :-))
I didn't have fresh yeast so used 11/2tsp of dried yeast.The total weigh of my dough after the 4 minutes of kneading was 660g.
I used a 23 cm quiche tin and all the filling fitted.As my tin was smaller than Isi's I cooked the pie for an extra 10 minutes @ 160c fan.
A couple of changes to the recipe ingredients:
Used Gruyere cheese ( a bargain at the supermarket) and added the whole eggs not just the yolks.

Post by: ElleG on July 17, 2014, 10:08:50 pm: I defrosted a pizza base and used that instead of making the pastry. Quick and easy, have added it to my favourites. We both really enjoyed it. Will try leftovers cold as well.
