Focaccia with onion

Ingredients:

• 250g (½ lb) wholemeal flour
• 8g (¼ oz) dry yeast or 16g (½ oz) fresh yeast
• 50ml (1â…” fl. oz) olive oil
• 150ml (3½ fl. oz) water
• 1 level tsp sugar (could be cane sugar)
• 1 tsp (sea) salt
• 1 medium onion sliced in rings thinly rolled in flour, coarse
• salt and/or rosemary needles for garnish

Preparation:

Put the oil with the other ingredients (except onions) in the pastry mould. Set the machine on the ‘French’ programme. Start de machine. When the kneading is done (for exact time, refer to Main features of most frequently-used bread baking programmes), press the dough into the mould. Lightly spray the dough with warm water and sprinkle it with coarse sea salt and/or rosemary needles. Spread the onions on top (they will stick better if they have been rolled in flour). Put the lid back on the machine and let the programme continue running.

As the onions dry during baking and shrink a bit, it’s a good idea to add a portion of the onion with the flour in the pastry mould. For variation you can also mix sage, rosemary or basil through the dough (1 teaspoon dried or 2 teaspoons fresh). In that case, mix the spices through the flour in advance. Another tasty idea is to add the sliced olives after the beep.
