How to Make Andreas Viestad Onion Pie With Jarlsberg And Thyme

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 4 cups thinly sliced yellow onions, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 bay leaf, 1 teaspoon black peppercorns, and 2 whole cloves.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and caramelized (about 20-25 minutes).
  4. Season with 1 teaspoon salt to taste.
  5. Remove and discard the bay leaf, peppercorns, and cloves.
  6. Line a medium-sized (approximately 9-inch) oven-safe dish with store-bought puff pastry, leaving an overhang for crimping.
  7. Spread the caramelized onions evenly in the puff pastry-lined dish.
  8. Top with 6 ounces shredded Jarlsberg cheese and 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves.
  9. Bake on the lowest rack of a preheated 400°F (200°C) oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  10. Let cool slightly before serving. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves just before serving.
