Our students had a good time preparing this Catalan dish. We hope you’ll enjoy it as much as we did.

Ingredients (20 seats):

Dough:

• 2 kg. de flour
• 3 eggs
• 100 gr. lard (pork)
• 3 Tbsp. salt
• water

Topping:

• 2 kg. onions
• 60 anchovy fillets
• 1 garlic bulb
• 50 gr. parsley
• 250 cl. olive oil
• Paprika

Preparation:

Shape a volcano with the flour and put the 3 eggs in the center along with salt and lard.

Mix with fingertips to make a paste.

Add water gradually and knead until getting a compact and tender dough.

Let the mixture stand covered for 1 hour. Then stretch.

1. Put the red paprika.

2. Then the onion fine-cut.

3. Put a pinch of garlic, parsley and oil.

4. Add a drizzle of olive oil on top.

5. Finally, put the anchovies.

The day of the lab, the students of Kitchen & Gastronomy in Via Magna did a twist typical of Basco Country: put salted instead of marinated anchovies.
