Green Onion Pie Food

GERMAN ZWIEBELKUCHEN (ONION PIE)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a jelly-roll pan or large pizza pan with prepared dough, making sure dough extends up sides of pan.
• Saute onion in a skillet until translucent and pour cooked onion into a large mixing bowl. Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, chop and add to onion; mix well.
• Stir in sour cream. Beat eggs enough to break up yolks, then mix in to pie mixture. Add flour to thicken mixture (onions will create a lot of water), then add salt. Mix well and pour mixture into prepared pan. Sprinkle top with caraway seed.
• Bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until onions start to turn golden brown on top.

GREEN ONION CAKES

Steps:

• Use a fork to mix flour and boiling water in a large bowl. Knead dough into a ball. Cover bowl with plastic wrap; let dough rest for 30 to 60 minutes.
• Evenly divide dough into 16 pieces. Roll each piece into a 1/4 inch thick circle. Brush each circle with oil, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with about 1 teaspoon of green onions. Roll up, cigar style; coil each pancake and pinch open ends together to form a disc. Roll each circle flat to about 1/4 inch thickness.
• Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet. Fry cakes until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Add more oil between batches, if necessary.

ONION PIE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute onions in oil until soft but not browned; drain well. In a large bowl, whisk eggs. Stir in the bread crumbs, cheese, parsley and onions. , Place in a greased 10-in. pie plate. Bake at 350° until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 35-40 minutes.

GREEN ONION RECIPES (PIZZA & MORE!)

Steps:

• Follow the Best Pizza Dough recipe to prepare the dough. (This takes about 15 minutes to make and 45 minutes to rest.)
• Place a pizza stone in the oven and preheat to 475°F. OR preheat your pizza oven (here's the pizza oven we use).
• Slice the green parts off of the scallions so they form long ribbons. In a small skillet, heat 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Add the scallions and sauté until slightly tender, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove from the heat.
• When the oven is ready, dust a pizza peel with cornmeal or semolina flour. (If you don't have a pizza peel, you can use a rimless baking sheet or the back of a rimmed baking sheet. But a pizza peel is well worth the investment!) Stretch the dough into a circle; see How to Stretch Pizza Dough for instructions. Then gently place the dough onto the pizza peel.
• Brush olive oil over the dough and sprinkle with kosher salt. Sprinkle with the mozzarella cheese, then the Pecorino cheese. Top with scallions. Carefully crack two eggs on top and sprinkle with a bit of kosher salt.
• Transfer the pizza to the pizza stone using the pizza peel, and bake until the egg white is set and the yolk is still runny, about 7 minutes.

ONION AND CHEESE PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Spray 9-inch glass pie plate with cooking spray. In small bowl, mix cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup melted butter; press evenly in bottom and up side of pie plate.
• In 10-inch skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Cook onions in butter 5 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until light brown. Spread onions in crust. Sprinkle with cheese.
• In medium bowl, beat milk, salt, pepper and eggs with fork or wire whisk until blended; pour over cheese.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Garnish with tomato and onion. Serve immediately.

CHEESE, ONION, AND POTATO PIES

Steps:

• Make the pastry by the usual method, then halve it, form each half into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and leave in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Meanwhile, peel and dice the potatoes, put them in a saucepan with plenty of cold water, and bring to the boil. Boil gently for 5-10 minutes, or until the cubes are cooked but still retain their shape. Drain and leave to cool.
• In a large bowl, combine the green onions, cheese, slightly cooled potato, and parsley. Bind with the creme fraiche and season with salt and pepper. Roll out one of the pastry discs, cut 8 rough circles slightly larger than the indents, and push 4 into the first tray to make the bases. Fill each with an eighth of the mixture and put the remaining 4 circles on as lids. Seal the pie edges with the back of a knife, making a little hole in each one. Repeat for the second tray with the other disc and the remaining half of the filling.
• Cook for 20 minutes, by which time the pastry should be firm, beginning to turn gold, but still pale, and let the pies stand a little out of the oven in their trays before easing them out of the molds.

OLD SCHOOL CHEESE AND ONION PIE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add sliced onion, salt, and pepper and stir to coat. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Pour in the beer, stir well, and raise the heat to medium and cook, stirring until the onions are soft, around 8 minutes. Set aside to cool or cover and chill in the refrigerator.
• In a mixing bowl, stir together the cooled onions, cheeses, eggs, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce and mustard until combined. Set aside filling to make pastry dough.
• Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a springform pan or casserole dish with parchment paper and set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, mustard powder, and kosher salt. Make a well in the centre of the flour and set aside.
• Place a large saucepan over medium heat. Gently bring the milk and butter to a gentle simmer. Pour the hot liquid into the flour well. Use a rubber spatula to mix together until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
• Divide dough in two. While the dough is still hot, roll each piece between two pieces of parchment paper or plastic wrap to the size of the base of your pan. Place one of the rounds of dough into the prepared pan. Starting at the centre of the dough press outward, gently working the dough outward and up the sides of the pan.
• Scrape the filling into the crust and position the second crust over the filling, trimming the excess away and pinching the seams where the bottom and top crusts meet together.
• Brush the top crust with the egg wash and use a sharp knife to cut three vent holes. Place your pie crust on a cookie sheet and bake for 60 to 70 minutes. The Onion and Cheese Pie is done baking once the exterior is a glossy brown and filling bubbles.
• Allow the pie to cool until warm or room temperature before slicing. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with a fresh salad.

ZUCCHINI ONION PIE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degree F.
• 2. In a large bowl, whisk the first eight ingredients. Stir in the zucchini, baking mix and onion. Pour into a greased 9-in. deep-dish pie plate. Bake at 350° for 40 - 45 minutes or until lightly browned. You could add ham, bacon, different spices and cheeses. A very good recipe!

GREEN ONION QUICHE (WITH CHEESE)

Steps:

• Make crust: Place the flour, salt, cold butter cubes, and dried herbs in the food processor. Process until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs, then add the cold water and process for just a few seconds until the dough starts to come together.
• Knead: Turn the dough onto the working surface and knead briefly to form a ball.
• Refrigerate: Wrap it in plastic foil and refrigerate it for about an hour.
• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius/ 360 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Take the dough out of the fridge, flatten it well, and press it in the pie dish. You could also roll it, but I find pressing it works just as well in this case.
• Bake crust: Prick it with a fork all over and bake it for about 10 to 12 minutes until slightly golden.
• Prepare ingredients: Crumble the feta with your hand or with a fork, grate the Gouda or Cheddar cheese, cut the green onions into fine rings, chop the peppers into fine cubes and chop the dill.
• Beat the eggs, add the cheese, vegetables and herbs, some salt and pepper, and mix well.
• Take the quiche crust out of the oven and sprinkle the dried breadcrumbs evenly on top. This will prevent the dough from becoming soggy.
• Pour the filling into the form and continue baking for 30 to 35 minutes until the quiche is golden and set.
• Take out of the oven, let cool slightly and serve with a green salad on the side.

PEPPER, ONION AND BEEF POTPIE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute onion and peppers in oil for 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in the beef, potatoes, soup, corn, mushrooms, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes., For pastry, combine flour and salt in a large bowl. Cut in shortening until crumbly; sprinkle with onion. Gradually add water, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. , Divide dough in half so that one ball is slightly larger than the other. On a lightly floured surface, roll out larger ball to fit a 9-in. deep-dish pie plate. , Transfer pastry to plate; trim even with edge. Add filling. Roll out remaining pastry to fit top of pie; place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edges. Cut slits in top., Bake at 375° for 45-50 minutes or until filling is bubbly and crust is golden brown. Let stand for 15 minutes before cutting.

CHINESE SCALLION PANCAKES

Steps:

• Mix salt with all purpose flour.
• Prepare a large mixing bowl. Dig a small hole in center and then pour the hot water in. Wait for 10 minutes and then stir in the cold water and vegetable oil. Grasp everything to form a ball, cover and rest for 5 minutes and then knead until very smooth (around 3-5 minutes ). The dough should be quite soft. Cover the rest for 20 to 30 minutes.
• After resting, the dough should be quite easy to roll out. Divide the large dough into 4 pieces and roll each piece into a large around circle. Brush some oil, sprinkle Chinese five spice power and chopped scallion (leave the 1 cm of the edge empty).
• Roll up the circle into a cylinder. And further roll into the shape of a snail. Cover with wet cloth and rest for 10 to 15 minutes.Roll the snail out to another thin circle.
• Brush some cooking oil on the pan and move the circle into the pan. Use middle fire to pan-fry until the surface becomes brown around 2-3 minutes. And turn over to fry for another 1 to 2 minutes. Use a spatula to press the circle from time and time especially the central part to ensure the circle is evenly fried.
• Remove the circle out and cut into wedges.

GREEN ONION SPOONBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9 by 13-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon butter. Add 3 tablespoons cornmeal to the dish and tilt the dish to coat the bottom and sides with the cornmeal. Set the baking dish aside.
• Combine the milk, cream, buttermilk, salt, and pepper in a medium saucepan, and bring just to a boil. Whisk in the 1 cup cornmeal and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and has the consistency of grits, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately transfer the mixture to a heatproof bowl. Stir in the cheese, and set the bowl aside until the mixture is lukewarm, stirring often to prevent a skin from forming on the top, 10 to 15 minutes.
• In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg yolks. Then stir the yolks, green onions, thyme, baking soda, and baking powder into the cornmeal mixture.
• Combine the egg whites and the sugar in a mixing bowl, and beat until stiff peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the whites into the cornmeal mixture to lighten it. Then gently fold in the remaining whites, taking care not to deflate the whites.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, and bake until the spoonbread is puffed and golden brown on top, and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.

• Pre-heat oven to 425°F.
• Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to 2 inches wider than the dish.
• Cut a 1-inch strip from the outer edge and use this to line the dampened rim of the pie dish.
• Dampen the pastry rim with water, cover with the pastry lid and seal the edges well, then using the back of a small knife'knock up' the edges and then flute them using your thumb and the back of a knife.
• Make a hole in the centre of the pie and use pastry trimmings to decorate.
• Bake for about 25-30 minutes, until risen and golden brown.

GREEN ONION PIE

Steps:

• 1 In a large bowl, sprinkle the yeast over the water. Let stand until the yeast is creamy, about 2 minutes. Stir until the yeast dissolves. 2 Add the olive oil, 2 1/2 cups of flour, and the salt. Stir the mixture until a soft dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes, adding more flour if needed. The dough should feel moist but not sticky. Shape the dough into a ball. 3 Oil a large bowl and place the dough in it, turning it once to oil the top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours. 4 Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Trim the onions, removing the root end and any bruised outer leaves. Trim about 1 inch from the tops. Cut the onions in half lengthwise, then crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. 5 In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-low heat. Stir in the onions. Cover the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender but not browned, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in the olives and let cool. 6 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 400°F. Flatten the dough to eliminate air bubbles. Divide the dough into 2 pieces, one about twice as large as the other. 7 On a lightly floured surface, roll out the larger piece of dough to a 12-inch circle. Loosely wrap the dough around the rolling pin and transfer it to a 9-inch springform pan. Center the dough in the pan and press evenly to fit. Spread the filling evenly over the dough leaving a 1-inch border all around. 8 Roll out the remaining dough to a 9-inch circle. Place the circle over the filling. Pinch the edges of the dough together to seal. With a small, sharp knife, cut eight 1/2-inch slits in the top of the dough. 9 Bake 40 minutes or until browned. Cool 10 minutes on a wire rack. Remove the sides of the pan. Let cool 15 minutes more. Serve hot or at room temperature. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone.
