Caramelized Onion, Beet, and Feta Galette Braid

Ingredients

• all-purpose flour2 cups
• cold butter, cubed10 tablespoons
• ice water5 tablespoons
• salt1 teaspoon
• onions, thinly sliced2 medium
• cooked beets, sliced thin2 cups
• feta cheese3/4 cup
• olive oil2 tablespoons
• balsamic vinegar1 tablespoon
• fresh dill2 tablespoons

Method

1. 1Make the dough by rubbing butter into flour and salt until crumbly, then mix in ice water just until it comes together.
2. 2Chill the dough for 10 minutes while you cook the onions in olive oil until deeply golden and sweet.
3. 3Stir balsamic vinegar into the onions and let them cool slightly.
4. 4Roll the dough into a rough circle on parchment and mound the onions in the center, leaving a wide border.
5. 5Layer beet slices over the onions, sprinkle with feta and dill, then cut strips around the edge and fold them over in a braid-like pattern.
6. 6Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 23 to 28 minutes until the crust is crisp and browned.
7. 7Cool for 5 minutes before serving so the filling stays intact.

Tips

• Keep the butter cold for the flakiest crust.
• If the beets are very moist, pat them dry so the pastry does not get soggy.
