Servings: 6

Preparation duration: -1 minutes

Cooking duration: -1 minutes

 

Ingredients:

2 sheets of ready-made frozen puff pastry, thawed according to instructions

2 generous tbsp butter

3 large white onions, peeled, halved, and sliced thinly

3 large eggs

1 cup cream

salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

pinch of freshly ground nutmeg

1/2 cup fresh ground mild flavored cheese, such as gruyere, asiago, or mild cheddar

1 lbs of mildly flavored fish fillets, I used wild tuna, cut into 1/2″ thick chunks

Equipment:

dutch oven

whisk

baking pan

pie form

rolling pin

oven

Cooking instruction summary:

Cut fish into 1/2 thick slices (if its not already). Sprinkle salt and fresh ground black pepper liberally all over the fish, and set aside. Melt butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat Add the onions and saute for a few minutes, until they become translucent. Be sure not to brown them in any way. reduce heat to very low, cover the Dutch oven tightly, and cook onions for about 20 minutes, stirring once or twice to prevent browning. Onions should be fully flavored, lightly yellow, but not brown, and most of the onion juices should be gone. If this state isnt reached in 20 minutes, cover and cook longer, checking every 5 minutes for doneness. Whisk the eggs and cream together Remove onions from heat, add egg and cream mixture and stir very thoroughly, until creamy and uniform. Season with salt and pepper to taste, add nutmeg. Finally, add the cheese and stir gently to distribute. Add paprika if desire. Sprinkle the surface of the table with flour lightly Roll out puff pastry to be slightly larger than the baking pan (I used a 10 pie pan). Line the baking pan with the layer of puff pastry, press it into the sides of the pan to form a pie shell. Pierce the shell all over with the fork Fold out half of the egg and onion mixture into the baking pan Arrange the fish slices over in a single layer, covering the entire surface of the pie Fold out the other half of the egg and onion mixture over the fish layer If you wish to make patterns in the pie, make them at this time. I improvised and used a plastic cap of a water bottle to cut out incomplete circles in the crust. While baking, the circles puffed out and shrunk, creating little peek-a-boo openings in the pie. Carefully transfer the top pie crust onto the top of the pie. Stretch out if necessary to distribute your patterns nicely. Using a rolling pin, press the pie crusts together to the rim of the baking pan, thus cutting the extras off without stretching the crusts. Bake for about 30 minutes at 425F, or until the egg and onion mixture is set in the middle, and pie crust is golden and flaky.

Food Joke

Many of us have been there. Something just doesn't click with the new boss. Or maybe we're just horribly incompetent, or miserably incapable of performing up to standard. Whatever the reason, sometimes in our lives, we've got to calculate the odds of being canned. Take this quiz and find out you chances of survival in the job world. 1. The boss appears at your cubicle and finds you playing DOOM at your desk. You... A: swear to take the game off your hard drive forever, but first make a copy for his kid. B) inform him that you're planting a virus in the program so that everyone who plays it on company time will get reported to Human Resources. C) Tell him that whatever he wants will have to wait until you've finished the level. 2. There's a cush job opening in the mail department, stuffing envelopes with free samples. It pays twice as much as your current position. What do you do? A: Meekly suggest to your boss that transferring you might improve the morale of everyone who's been working with you. B) Politely ask your boss for a transfer and offer to split the salary increase 50/50 with him. C) Barge into your boss's office and demand reassignment so that you, "Won't have to work under someone who should have retired before he became a laughing-stock." 3. When your boss throws a party and invites everyone in the office except you, what do you do? A: Stay home and watch 'I Love Lucy' reruns. B) Show up at the party anyway, with a really expensive bottle of wine and a briefcase full of small, unmarked bills. C) Go over to your boss's house after everyone has left and throw rocks at the windows, shouting obscenities. 4. Your boss criticizes your work unjustly; what do you do? A: Listen politely, and then apologize. B) Blame someone else. C) Climb on top of your desk, and hold up a piece of paper on which you've written the word "union." 5. When the CEO parks his car in your spot, you... A: Wash and wax it, then leave your business card under the windshield wiper. B) Key it ... then tell the CEO's secretary you saw your boss near it, loitering suspiciously. C) Key it ... then proudly tell the CEO's secretary that you did it. 6. Your boss asks you to play Kooky the Clown for his kid's fifth birthday party, what do you do? A: Offer to pay for the costume rental and cake, too. B) Agree to do it, then blackmail a co-workers into doing it while pretending to be you. C) Agree to do it, then show up as yourself and tell the children that Kooky is dead. 7. Your boss' gorgeous daughter comes on to you. How do you react? A: Tell her that you feel it would be unethical for you to date the boss's daughter, but that you would be honored to pay for her to go to the movie by herself. B) Slip her a mickey, then marry her before she sobers up. C) Tell her you would love to go out with her, because you like cheap women, but you prefer them to be at least slightly attractive. 8. The boss accuses you of not keeping the office clean. You... A: clean the office while he supervises. B) tell him that you delegated the job, then fire the underling you supposedly gave the job to. C) clean the office again, but this time, you use your boss' face. -- SCORING -- Mostly A's: You have nothing to worry about. They'll never fire you because you're a doormat. Mostly B's: You're not just going to keep your job, with your complete disregard for other peoples feelings, you'll positively shoot up the ladder of success. Congratulations! You're a real jerk. Mostly C's: You are a career kamikaze. The boss would have fired you long ago, but he's terrified of what you might do.
