You will need:

• 400 g flour
• 1 package yeast (about 2 ¼ tsp)
• Salt
• 200 ml water
• 4 medium onions, red or white
• 200 g sour cream (or mix of crème fraiche and sour cream to = 200 g)
• Bacon if desired
• Grated cheese if desired, a cup or so of Emmentaler, Gruyere, or similar

For the vegan version – cashew crème topping:

• 1 ½ cups raw cashews
• ½ cup water
• ½ tsp salt
• 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
• 2 tsp nutritional yeast
• ½ tsp miso (if you have it around)

People like to drink this with a regional, light white wine from Baden or the Elsass, but go local. Sandbanks winery has a nice ‘Dunes White’ and ‘Riesling Gewürztraminer’. Southbrook has an organic ‘Connect White’. Or whatever you want. No shame in a local beer either.
