Onion Anchovy GaletteStephanie Foley

A take on the Provençal tart known as pissaladiére, this galette can be served as an hors d'oeuvre or, with a salad, as a light lunch. It gets fullness of flavor from a tangle of sweet caramelized onions that tops a smear of tomato paste enlivened with garlic and anchovies (left over from Mediterranean Eggplant Relish). A flaky homemade pastry crust ups the richness even more.

Cooks notes:

Dough can be chilled up to 3 days. Onions can be caramelized 1 day ahead and chilled.
