Caramelized onion polentart

A golden version of the pissaladiere, the onion and anchovy tart from Provence.

DSC08295-001

I add a second polenta tart crust left from when I baked this tarte polenta.
I’ve painted it with olive oil, baked it.

DSC08318-001

Garnished with onions cooked till brown in the olive oil from a can of anchovies with a little garlic. Garnished the crust. Added red chili and a few anchovy filets. Re-baked briefly. Decorated with green olives and thyme. You can make it without anchovies if you add a little soy sauce to the onions.

Cut when it’s cooled. I eat it at room temperature, and in this season that means warm.

Skillet pizza, plant based

When it’s hot, you don’t want to heat more the kitchen by boosting the oven in pizza mode… plus you’re too lazy to knead the dough. So that’s how you can make a pizza :

2013-08-29

1. Quick dough : flour, baking powder, salt, olive oil and water.
2. The dough can be cooked immediately in a skillet (no oil, a wet lid on top to create steam).
3. Tomato paste and olive oil on the dough…

That really “grills” the dough and brings a pizza flavor.

Summer produce.

DSC08494-001

I’ve steamed the aubergine and the onion. The sweet corn and the peppers are raw.

DSC08498-001

Veg’ cheese : sakekasu (sake lees), miso and olive oil

DSC08503-001

Passed under the grill 3 minutes to color the sauce. That step could be skipped and the garnished pizza could be fully cooked in the skillet.
