Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Onions

Start by slicing the onions into rings. Cook them on medium heat in a skillet until they become soft and caramelized. Don’t forget to add sugar, salt, and wine vinegar during this process to enhance their natural sweetness.

Step 2

Roll Out the Pastry

Take one sheet of the puff pastry and roll it out on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Use a fork to prick the surface lightly to allow steam to escape while baking.

Step 3

Assemble the Pie

Spread the sautéed onions evenly over the pastry. Add the sliced cured sausage and sprinkle the grated cheese on top to create a delicious filling.

Step 4

Bake the Pie

Preheat your oven to 190 degrees Celsius (375 degrees Fahrenheit). Place your assembled pie in the oven and bake for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown.

Step 5

Serve and Enjoy

Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs and delicious mustard on the side for a delightful experience!

Servings

Serving this Layered Onion Pie is all about creativity! You can pair it with fresh herbs for an added burst of flavor, or serve it with a delicious mustard dip that complements the savory richness of the pie. Whether you're setting a table for a family picnic or hosting a cozy indoor gathering, this pie is sure to be the star of the show. 🥳 Add a side of green salad for a refreshing touch, and let the flavors dance together at your table. Trust us, your guests will be reaching for seconds! 🍽️

Variations

If you're looking for a way to make this dish fit into different dietary preferences, fear not! We have you covered! 🎉

Gluten-Free Variation:

Use a gluten-free pastry dough available at most grocery stores. You can also make your own by combining gluten-free flours like almond or rice flour.

Vegan Variation:

To make this pie vegan-friendly, replace cheese with vegan cheese alternatives and sausage with hearty vegetables or cooked lentils. You'll still get that satisfying fill without compromising on taste! 🌱

Faq

  • What if my pastry dough is too sticky?

    If your dough feels sticky, try adding a little more flour. Keep it dusted to prevent it from sticking while rolling out.

  • How do I know when the onions are caramelized?

    Your onions should be golden brown and soft, and they should have a sweet aroma. This usually takes about 15-20 minutes over medium heat.

  • Can I use other fillings besides onions?

    Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with different fillings like mushrooms, spinach, or even roasted vegetables!

  • What's the best way to reheat leftovers?

    The best way to enjoy leftover pie is to reheat it in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 10-15 minutes to keep the pastry crispy!

  • Can I freeze this pie?

    Yes! You can freeze the unbaked pie by wrapping it well. Just remember to adjust the baking time when cooking from frozen!

  • What kind of cheese works best?

    A mix of your favorite cheeses works great! Cheddar, mozzarella, or Gruyère are all excellent choices for this pie.
