Steps:
- Slice 3 onions using a food processor and place in a slow cooker and cook on high for 6-8 hours or until caramelized to golden brown.
- Now that the onions have caramelized drain off the juices and set aside for later.
- Place onions in a large bowl to cool completely. Once onions have cooled add creme fraiche, hot pepper sauce, eggs, salt and pepper. If you feel you need a little moisture in your mixture add just a tiny bit of onion juice. You don't want too much juice or your crust will be soggy. Stir until well incorporated and place in uncooked pie shell.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a small bowl combine all the topping ingredients. Place on top of onion pie spreading out evenly to edges of crust. To avoid crust from burning cover edges with pie shield and bake in preheated oven for 35 minutes.
- Remove pie shield and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until top of pie is completed golden brown on top.
- Remove pie from oven and allow to cool a few minutes prior to serving. Garnish with bacon and chives if desired. The pie can be served warm, cold, or room temperature.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- First, make the pastry. Tip the flours into a medium bowl with the cayenne, onion seeds, parmesan and a generous pinch of salt. Rub in the butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs, then pour in half the egg and 2 tbsp cold water and bring everything together using your hands. Knead a couple of times until smooth. Flatten a third of the dough into a disc, then do the same with the remaining dough. Wrap both pastry discs and chill in the fridge for at least 30 mins. Will keep chilled for up to two days.
- Meanwhile, make the filling. Heat the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat until sizzling, then scatter in the onions, bay, thyme, a large pinch of salt and good grinding of black pepper. Stir, then cook slowly for 10 mins until the onions have cooked down and started to caramelise. Stir in the sliced potatoes, cover and cook for 8-10 mins more, stirring occasionally until the potatoes are soft and starting to break down. Stir in the cream, remove the pan from the heat and leave to cool. Once cool, remove and discard the bay, then fold in the cheese.
- Roll the smaller pastry disc out on a lightly floured surface to the size of a dinner plate and lift onto a baking sheet lined with baking parchment. Roll out the remaining pastry disc along with any offcuts to a circle about 5cm wider than the first. Spoon the filling into the middle of the smaller circle on the baking sheet, leaving a 4cm border. Brush the exposed border with some of the remaining beaten egg, then drape over the larger pastry circle. Tuck the edge around the filling to enclose it, as if making a giant ravioli. Trim the edge to neaten, then crimp with a cutlery knife handle or fork to seal. Brush the pie all over with most of the remaining beaten egg, and use any trimmings to make decorations, if you like.
- Heat the oven to 210C/190C fan/gas 7. Bake the pie for 35-40 mins until deeply golden, brushing with the rest of the beaten egg halfway through. Leave to cool on the baking sheet for at least 20 mins before cutting into wedges, or leave to cool completely and serve cold.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Make onion topping:
- Heat butter and oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides, then cook onion, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in thyme, salt, and pepper, then cool. Toss cheese with onion and spread in bottom of a 9 1/2-inch deep-dish glass pie plate.
- Make crust:
- Blend flour, baking powder and soda, and salt in a food processor. Add cheese and pulse 3 or 4 times to combine. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal.
- Whisk together buttermilk and dry mustard in a small bowl and add to processor, then pulse until liquid is incorporated and dough begins to clump (do not let it form a ball).
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and fold it over on itself several times to lightly knead. Form dough into a ball and let stand, covered with plastic wrap, at room temperature 10 minutes.
- Roll out dough between 2 sheets of plastic wrap into a 10-inch round. Remove top sheet of plastic wrap and flip dough over onto onion. Peel off remaining plastic and tuck dough inside rim of pie plate.

Steps:
- To make the crust, use fingertips to quickly work the flour into the butter until the mixture has the consistency of coarse cornmeal. Add the salt. Beat the egg yolk into the ice water. Form a well in the flour and butter mixture, pour in the liquid and, using the heel of the hand, work the liquid into the flour mixture until the dough can be shaped into a ball. Wrap in plastic. Chill for 1 hour.
- Make the filling by melting the butter in a large skillet over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and add the onions. Cook, stirring frequently until the onions are light brown, about 15 minutes. Adjust the flame to avoid burning. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface and place in a large pie or tart pan. Press the dough into the pan and crimp the edges.
- Arrange the anchovies in a starburst pattern from the center of the pie. Sprinkle on half of the black olives. Layer in half of the onions, then the remaining black olives and then top with the remaining onions. Bake the tart until the crust is golden and the onions are caramelized and brown, 40 to 50 minutes.

GERMAN ZWIEBELKUCHEN (ONION PIE)
Zwiebelkuchen is an onion pie from Swabia, in south-central Germany. It is a special time of year, in the fall, when the mom & pop winemakers will open a BasinWirtschaft in their barn or garage. They serve the new wine, fresh zwiebelkuchen, and perhaps some wurst, for a minimal fee. A few tables are set up, and they are open when they have time to serve. To indicate they are serving, they will hang a straw broom over the doorway. The combination of the onions and the 'green' wine can have explosive consequences later on!
