Kitchen know-how

Tips for Onion cake with bacon

Onions slowly fry softly

Let the large amount of onion collapse over medium heat without roasting it dark. Thus, the filling becomes sweet, soft and not bitter.

Cool filling before documenting

Hot onions would heat yeast dough and egg-cast prematurely. Therefore let the mixture cool lukewarmly and then combine with bacon and cast.

Leave to be placed briefly before cutting

The onion cake should rest for about ten minutes after baking. Then the casting stabilizes and the juicy pieces can be cut cleaner.

Variations

How to adapt this recipe

Replace bacon with 200 grams of strongly roasted brown mushrooms. Let the mushrooms completely evaporate so that the egg-casting does not become watery later.

Mix a teaspoon of slightly pressed caraway under the steamed onions. The spice fits the sweetness of the onions and should be sparingly dosed.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ about Onion cake with bacon

Yellow onions have a balanced sweet-spicy aroma after slow steaming. Vegetable onions are milder, but often give off a little more water.

The onions were still very moist or the oven was not completely preheated. Allow the filling to evaporate open and bake the cake on the lower rail.

Yeast dough and steamed onions can be prepared separately for a few hours. Don't let the bottom soak until it's just a short time before eating.

Young feather whiter is the traditional autumn accompaniment. Alcohol-free white grape juice with mineral water offers a similarly fruity, slightly acidic complement.
