Triesenberg Swiss Chard and Feta Galette (Triesenberger Mangold-Feta-Galette)

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
  • 1/4 cup ice water
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 bunch Swiss chard, stems removed and leaves chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Gradually add the ice water, tossing with a fork until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
  4. Add the chopped Swiss chard to the skillet and cook until wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let cool.
  5. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  6. Spoon the cooked Swiss chard mixture onto the center of the dough, leaving a 2-inch border. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the Swiss chard.
  7. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pleating as needed. Brush the crust with the beaten egg wash.
  8. Bake the galette for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
