Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons fresh chopped thyme leave or one teaspoon dried
  • 1 bay leaf crumbled
  • 2 pounds yellow onions about six large onions, sliced
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 5 large anchovy fillets half a two-ounce can
  • 1 pound bread dough
  • 1/3 to 1/2 cup pitted Greek or Italian black olives

Method

  • Add thyme and bay leaf to half the oil in a heavy skillet or saucepan. Cook briefly.
  • Add onions and cook over very low heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. At no time should the onions brown; they should be kept as white as possible.
  • Add water and cover pot. Cook over low heat one hour, adding more water if necessary to prevent scorching.
  • Add anchovies and cook 10 minutes longer, uncovered. Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl. Pour remaining oil over the surface and let stand in refrigerator overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350-degrees.
  • Grease well a 12-inch or 14-inch round pizza pan or a large cooky sheet. Roll or stretch the bread dough to fit the pan, having a raised edge.
  • Pour in onion mixture and dot with olives. Bake 30 minutes or until done. Serve cold
