Ingredients

Dough

  • 10 g fresh yeast
  • 50 ml water lukewarm
  • 90 g all-purpose flour
  • 40 g whole rye flour
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 egg
  • 5 ml olive oil

Toppings

  • 150 g smoked salmon
  • ½ bulb onion medium size
  • 4 tbsp tomato purée
  • 50 g arugula
  • 50 g Gouda cheese
  • 10 g butter

Instructions

Dough

  • Dissolve the yeast in lukewarm water. Work the yeast, wheat and whole rye flour, and egg into a smooth dough. Cover and set aside for 20 min. 
  • Add salt and olive oil to the dough and knead until fully incorporated. Cover and allow to rise for approximately 20 min.
  • Preheat the oven to230C. Line a large baking tray with parchment.
  • Divide the dough into two portions. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface into a rectangular shape (or any shape) as thin as possible. You can use a knife to shape the edges of the rectangular.
  • Transfer the dough to the lined baking tray.

Toppings

  • Spread the tomato purée over the top, leaving a space around the edge without any topping.
  • Chop the onion into half-thin rings. Add the onions to the pan with the butter, and cook a few minutes until the onions have softened but not brown. Cut the cheese into thin strips. Set aside. Wash arugula roughly, though away any brown or wilted leaves. 
  • Spread over the smoked salmon, sauteed onions, and cheese. 

Baking

  • Bake for around 9minutes until the edges are lightly brown and crisp and the toppings are just starting to colour.
  • Now top with the arugula and bake for another minute.
  • Serve immediately.
