French Onion Galette

Writer's picture: SassyRootsSassyRoots

THIS RECIPE IS AMAZING!

If you've never had a Galette, just think of it as a glorified savory tart, or a rustic savory pie.

This is a MUST HAVE recipe for an appetizer!





The trick to making this simple, stylish dish taste incredible is this: Don't rush. You want to really caramelize the onions to give the galette a silky texture and deep, rich, decadent flavor, and there are no shortcuts. But when you're done, you'll have a rustic, free-form version of a savory tart that's pretty enough to serve guests. Or make one for yourself on a quiet Sunday, and keep leftovers for weekday lunches. You can serve it with a slice with a simple side salad for a vegetarian-friendly lunch or dinner, or pair with your favorite eggs for a decadent brunch.


Ingredients:

2 tablespoons avocado oil

3 pounds yellow onions (I prefer mine diced, but you can slice thin as well)

4 thyme sprigs(or 1/2 tsp crushed)

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon red wine vinegar

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 pie crust

2/3 cup mozzarella

1/3 cup grated parmesan

1 TBSP heavy cream or full fat milk

Extra Olive Oil for drizzle.

1 TBSP dried Parsley (optional) for garnish.



Directions: Preheat oven to 425ºF.

Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium. Add onions, thyme, and salt; cook, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until onions caramelize, about 45 minutes. Discard thyme stems( if using sprigs). Remove from heat and Stir in vinegar and pepper.

Unroll piecrust on a sheet of parchment paper, and use a rolling pin to roll out to a 13-inch circle. Pile onion mixture in middle of circle and spread evenly, leaving a 2-inch border; sprinkle cheese over onion filling. Fold edges of dough over filling.

Brush cream or milk over dough. Bake in preheated oven until crust is golden, about 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before slicing. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with parsley.




Notes:

This recipe can be divided into 2 smaller galettes as well


If bottom has browned before top, when timer goes off, just put it under the broiler for a minute or so until top has evenly browned as well.


This recipe is equally as delicious if you leave the cheese out.
