Steps:
- Preheat oven to the highest temperature possible.
- Thoroughly mix flour, oil,water and salt to make a dough (should not be sticky) and roll out as thin as possible.
- Optional:Melt the butter in a pan, add onions and sweat for just a couple of minutes. Add bacon, stir and heat through. If you slice everything thin you don't have to sautée it before putting it on.
- Spread creme fraiche on top of dough, then spread onions and bacon on top of it. Season with salt and pepper.
- Put in the oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes. Once the bread looks crispy it's done.
- SUGGESTIONS: Tastes great with a glass of white wine.
- Thin out the sour cream with a bit of cream.
- You could add cumin or grated cheese.
- Top with olives,tomatoes and bacon instead of onions. Or top with spinach,garlic tomatoes and sheep's cheese.
- You could even make a sweet version and top with thinnly sliced apples and cinnamon sugar on top of the creme fraiche.
