Flammkuchen
- 2 cups Flour
- 2- 1/2 Tablespoons Oil
- 23 cups Water
- Oil, For Greasing Your Pans
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 cup Ricotta
- 1 cup Sour Cream
- 1 whole Large Onion
- 2 Tablespoons Oil
- 10 slices Bacon
- Mix the dough ingredients together.
- Divide into two and roll each out as thinly and widely as possible to make the Flammkuchen base.
- (Make sure it will still fit in your oven.)
- Oil two baking sheets and place one under each pastry base.
- Finely chop the garlic and mix with the ricotta and sour cream, in a blender if you want to make it really smooth.
- Season and spread half of the mixture on to each pastry base.
- Cut the onion in half, and finely slice each half into crescent moons.
- Put in a heavily oiled pan and let them soften over a low heat.
- Chop the ten rashers (slices) of bacon into thin matchsticks and add to the onion pan until they are semi-cooked, and the onions are caramelizing a little.
- Spread half of the onion and bacon mixture onto each Flammkuche and bake on the middle shelf of the oven at 220 degrees C (430 F) for fifteen minutes, turning halfway if necessary.
- Its ready once the toppings are slightly browned.
- Serve, and eat with a knife and fork unless you feel like you can balance that paper-thin crust on your fingers.
