A Galette is nothing more than a free form rustic tart. You can also do this in a tart shell.
And i love truffle oil and use a lot in my cooking but you can omit that and just use olive oil if you prefer, and the smoked salt in the pastry can be swapped with regular salt or sea salt.
Ingredients:
Pastry:
1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into 1 tablespoon slices
1 1/4 cup unbleached all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground smoked salt
1 tablespoon fresh sage leaves, finely chopped
5 tablespoons ice cold water
Filling:
4 cups butternut squash, peeled and cut into cubes +1 tablespoon olive oil +1 tablespoon truffle oil + salt and pepper to taste
2 medium onions, thinly sliced into half moons + 2 tablespoons olive oil + 2 tablespoons butter + 1 tablespoon sugar + salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
2 sage leaves, chopped
Truffle oil to drizzle
1 egg , well beaten
In a food processor pulse butter, flour, salt and sage leaves. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time until dough crumbles. Pour over your work surface and form a ball with it. Wrap in plastic film and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375F.
Toss butternut squash, olive oil, truffle oil, salt and pepper and place it on a cookie sheet. Bake it on preheated oven for about 30 minutes.
While cooking the squash, go ahead and caramelize the onions by tossing all ingredients( onion, oil, butter, sugar, salt and pepper) together in a large frying pan and cook on low for about 45 minutes.
Toss butternut squash, onions and fresh sage in a bowl and set aside.
Turn oven temperature up to 400F.
On a floured surface roll out the dough to 14in round, doesn't have to be perfect, since it's a rustic tart.
Bake in preheated oven for 35-40 minutes. Let it rest about 10 minutes and then slice into wedges and serve as an appetizer. Serve warm, hot or even room temperature.
