Time 2h

Yield Serves six

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 medium onions, cut in half root to stem, then thinly sliced across the grain

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, and cook, stirring, until they begin to sizzle and soften, about three minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt and the garlic. Stir everything together, turn the heat to low, cover and cook slowly for 45 minutes, stirring often, until the onions are very soft, sweet and light brown.Meanwhile, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat in another large skillet.

ROASTING THE CAULIFLOWER. PREHEAT THE OVEN TO 425. BAKE THIS FOR 15 MINUTES. TURN THE CAULIFLOWER OVER AND ROAST ANOTHER 15 MINUTES. TAKE OUT AND LET COOL
1 small head cauliflower, clean and slice. separate into 1" slices.
3 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp truffle oil (i used white truffle oil)
salt and pepper to taste
CARAMELIZING THE ONIONS
1 large onion (use vidalia if possible) cut in half and slice thin.
1 1/2 Tbsp good olive oil
TART DOUGH:
1 1/4 c ap flour
1 Tbsp cornstarch....plus 2 more teaspoons!
1/4 tsp salt
6 Tbsp butter, cold,diced in
1 egg
INSIDES:
2 large eggs
1 (7-8) oz marscapone cheese
1/2 c whipping cream
1/4 tsp white pepper
pinch ground nutmeg
1 c grated guyere cheese
1/3 c parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 450F. Toss the cauliflower in the oil. Spread out onto a non stick baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 15, then flip. Cook 15 minutes more and remove from oven.
  • 2. In a good skillet, bring 1 1/2 tbps of good olive oil to a shimmer. Add thin sliced Vidalia onions, add in a pinch or two of salt and pepper and stir, stir, stir...for about 30 minutes until they turn a beautiful golden brown. Don't ignore those fronds.
  • 3. MAKE UP THAT DOUGH: I really hate working with pastry, but this was pretty harmless.
  • 4. I used a whisk: Flour, cornstarch, salt and butter. Then add in the egg. I lost my pastry blender in the move to the lower 48 and had to use a fork....gave that up quick and used my grandma's fingers to get the pea sized effect I needed.
  • 5. Smash that dough all together and roll it thin. Yes, I cheated and used plastic wrap as a medium. Transfer the dough to the tart pan and press in. Now lightly coat the dough with 1 TBSP Dijon mustard, bottom and sides.
  • 6. Layering the Stuff: After pressing in the tart dough and brushing the bottom and sides with dijon, add in the onions. Top with cauliflower.
  • 7. In a bowl, mix the eggs, marscapone, cream, white pepper, nutmeg and Guyere. Pour over the top of the tart. I had to use my hands to redistribute the cheesiness.
  • 8. Top with 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese. Bake 350F for 40 minutes.

1 1/2 large sweet yellow onions
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup butter
3/4 cup flour
3/4 cup milk

Cook onions until caramelized and brown. After about 15 minutes, add garlic and continue to cook until onions are translucent and brown In a sauce pan, melt butter. Whisk in flour to make a roux, when all combined and cooked a little, whisk in milk until sauce has nice consistency. Add most of the cheese and continue to stir until smooth and creamy.

Tips:
