Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

A delight, warm or cold

Knead all the dough ingredients together and chill in the refrigerator for about 1/2 hour. In the meantime, dice the onions and sauté them in a little oil. When they are translucent and starting to brown, reduce the heat slightly and add the 2 tablespoons of sugar to the onions. Stir everything well and let it sit for about 5 minutes, until the sugar liquefies and coats the onions. Be careful, the sugar burns easily. Then remove the onions and let them cool. Dice the Gorgonzola as finely as possible and mix it in a bowl with the crème fraîche and the 2 eggs. Season with salt and pepper to taste. It can be spicy (but not too salty), as this creates a great contrast to the sweet onions. Stir the cooled onions into the egg mixture. Roll out the dough and spread it into a tart or 26cm springform pan, creating a 2cm high edge. Prick the dough several times with a fork to prevent air pockets from forming in the oven. Spread the mixture over the dough and bake at 200°C (top/bottom heat) on the middle rack (depending on your oven) for about 40-50 minutes, until the quiche is golden brown. Serve with a fresh salad, for example.
