Method

  1. Cook the onions slowly in 4 tbsp of olive oil in a large wide pan for about 25 minutes until very tender. Add the garlic and herbs and cook for a further 5-10 minutes until the onions just start to caramelise. Season and leave to cool.
  2. Put the flour in a mixing bowl with the yeast and a pinch each of salt and sugar. Make a well in the centre and add the egg, 1 tbsp olive oil and 75ml lukewarm water. Mix until the dough comes together, adding a little more water if needed. Turn onto a lightly floured worksurface and knead until smooth. Lightly oil a large non-stick baking sheet, then roll the dough out on top into a 40cm x 30cm rectangle.
  3. Spread the goat's cheese over the dough, leaving a 1cm border, then spread the onions on top in an even layer. Lay the pepper strips in a lattice pattern over the onions. Put one slice of cherry tomato in the middle of each diamond. Cover loosely with clingfilm and leave to rise for about 20-25 minutes. Heat the oven to 190C/ fan 170C/gas 5. Bake for about 20-25 minutes. Cut into squares and serve warm.

    made the mistake of cooking it on tinfoil without greasing the tinfoil. had to have all my dinner party guests peel the tinfoil off the bottom of the pizza!

    I used mozerella instead of goats cheese as that is what was in my fridge, it was still lovely, although I suspect with the stronger flavoured cheese it would have been better still!

    Fantastic recipe. the base was LOVELY. I would suggest adding more garlic, chilli or even mushrooms to give the flavour a bit more 'oomph'. also definantely use a good strong cheese.

    I made this for a birthday dinner party. I just used a pizza base ready mix to save time on the base. I didn't think that the flavour justified all the veg preparation time. Just thought it was a little bland. My guests liked it though! I served it with a green salad.

    This isn't a pissaladière! Four of the main things that make a pissaladière a pissaladière are: - No tomatoes - No cheese - Anchovies - A thick, doughy base (in France we often buy unbaked bread dough from the baker and form that into the pissaladière base) This fails on all counts! It's just a pizza.
