FLATBREAD WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS & CHEESE

Flatbread With Caramelized Onions & Cheese image

This is a very versatile dish from Bonnie Stern who has owned a cooking school in Toronto Canada for over 30 years. It can be served at a cocktail party, as an appetizer or as a main course with a side salad. My DH & I have been known to devour the whole thing, with a few glasses of wine, on a Saturday night!!

Time 1h10m

Yield 40 triangles

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 large onions, chopped
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 lb frozen puff pastry (defrosted but cold)
6 ounces brie cheese, diced (rind removed)
6 ounces mild blue cheese, diced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chervil or 2 tablespoons parsley

Steps:

Heat oil over medium high heat in a large skillet.
Add onions; cook until wilted& starting to brown.
Add sugar, vinegar, salt& pepper.
Reduce heat& cook gently for 15- 25 minutes or until onions are caramelized& brown.
Cool.
Roll pastry into a rectangle approximately 12 x 16 inches. I don't use the sheets of puff pastry - I prefer to use the 375gm package of Tenderflake Puff Pastry. I start rolling it out on my counter, then I transfer it to my baking tray (which has been lined with parchment paper) and roll the pastry to fit the tray. Since puff pastry is very "forgiving", you can "cut & paste" if necessary.
Spread onions over pastry.
Dot with cheese& sprinkle with chervil.
If you are preparing this for a party, you can prepare to this point and refrigerate- then bake later.
Bake in preheated 400F oven for 20- 25 minutes or until cheese has melted& pastry is crisp.
When removed from the oven, it will be puffed right up but allow it to cool for 5 minutes & it will fall back down. Cut into 20 serving pieces - this is easier done with kitchen scissors instead of a knife - then cut each piece in half diagonally.

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1/2 cup warm water (110 degrees)
1/2 teaspoon active dry yeast
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for bowl and brushing
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
3/4 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste

Steps:

Heat a grill or grill pan until hot. Place water in a medium bowl, and sprinkle yeast on top; stir to dissolve. Let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add olive oil, flour, and salt; combine. Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, 1 to 2 minutes. Place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let stand in a warm place for 30 minutes.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide into 4 equal pieces, and roll out each into a 1/8-inch-thick round. Lightly brush both sides of each round with olive oil, and place the rounds directly on the hot grill. Grill the flatbread until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from grill, and season with salt.

Tips:

Use a hot grill to get a crispy flatbread.
Cook the onions slowly over medium heat until they are caramelized.
Use a good quality blue cheese for the mascarpone mixture.
Add some chopped walnuts or pecans to the mascarpone mixture for extra crunch.
Serve the flatbread immediately with a drizzle of balsamic glaze.

Grilled flatbread topped with caramelized onions and blue cheese mascarpone is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack.
