خطوة بخطوة

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine the water and active dry yeast, letting it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.

   حوالي 5 د

   ملاحظة الطاهي: Ensure your water is lukewarm (around 105-115°F or 40-46°C) to activate the yeast without killing it.

2. 2

   Add the all-purpose flour, olive oil, and salt to the yeast mixture.

3. 3

   Mix until a shaggy dough forms, then turn it out onto a lightly floured surface.

   حوالي 2 د

4. 4

   Knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.

   حوالي 10 د

5. 5

   Lightly grease the bowl, place the dough back in, cover with a clean cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

   حوالي 1 س

   ملاحظة الطاهي: A slightly warm oven (turned off) can be a good place for dough to rise.

6. 6

   While the dough rises, prepare the onion topping; heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-low heat.

   حوالي 5 د

   ملاحظة الطاهي: Using a wide pot helps the moisture evaporate more easily from the onions.

7. 7

   Add the yellow onion to the pot, stirring to coat evenly with oil.

8. 8

   Cook the onions very slowly for 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are very soft, deeply caramelized, and sweet.

   حوالي 1 س

   ملاحظة الطاهي: Patience is key here; low and slow cooking prevents burning and develops maximum sweetness.

9. 9

   Stir in the garlic, thyme, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper during the last 10 minutes of cooking the onions.

   حوالي 10 د

   ملاحظة الطاهي: Adding garlic too early can cause it to burn and become bitter.

10. 10

    Remove the bay leaf and set the caramelized onions aside to cool completely.

    حوالي 10 د

11. 11

    Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).

    حوالي 15 د

12. 12

    Punch down the risen dough and gently press or roll it into a large rectangle (approximately 35x25 cm or 14x10 inches) on a lightly floured surface or directly in a baking sheet.

    حوالي 5 د

    ملاحظة الطاهي: The dough should be about 1/2 inch thick.

13. 13

    Transfer the dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

    حوالي 1 د

14. 14

    Spread the cooled caramelized onions evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

    حوالي 2 د

15. 15

    Arrange the anchovy fillets in a lattice pattern on top of the onions.

    حوالي 2 د

16. 16

    Place one niçoise olive in the center of each diamond formed by the anchovies.

    حوالي 2 د

17. 17
