Ingredients for Mortadella and Caramelized Onion Square Pie
Method
Directions to prepare Mortadella and Caramelized Onion Square Pie
- 1
Prepare the crust
In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add cold water, mixing until a dough forms. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Caramelize the onions
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and caramelized, about 20-25 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 4
Roll out the dough
On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to fit a square baking pan. Transfer the rolled dough to the pan and trim any excess.

Prepare the filling
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Stir in the diced mortadella and the cooled caramelized onions.

Assemble the pie
Pour the filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden.

Cool and serve
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into squares. Serve warm or at room temperature.
