- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 pounds sweet or yellow onions, (peeled andd sliced very thinly)
- 1 large firm, ripe pear ((rinsed & cut in half crosswise, then lengthwise))
- salt and pepper, (to taste)
- 2 sheets puff pastry, (thawed but kept cool)
- 7 ounces (1½ cups) crumbled gorgonzola or other blue cheese
Langkah-langkah
In a large frying pan over medium heat, melt the butter with the olive oil. Add the sliced onion and reduce heat slightly (between medium and medium-low). Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions soften and turn brown, 30 to 40 minutes. Meanwhile, trim the pear quarters to remove seeds, then cut into thin slices; set aside. When onions are nicely browned, sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and set aside to cool to room temperature.
Preheat the oven to 375℉. Line two 14x17-inch sheet pans with parchment paper and transfer one sheet of pastry dough to each. Roll out the pastry lightly with a floured rolling pin to flatten any creases.
Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the pastry sheets into triangle, wedge, or diamond-shaped pieces about 2-inches wide (don't worry if you cut through the parchment). Slightly separate the pieces so that they are not touching.
Lay a pear slice in the center of each wedge (trim the slice so that it doesn't cover the entire pastry). Top with a small pile of caramelized onions and about ½ teaspoon of the blue cheese.
Bake in oven until fully puffed and golden, about 25 to 30 minutes. Serve warm.
