again
and
leave
for
another

• Spread

of
oil
over
the
top

dough,
then,
with
your
fingers,
scoop
down
around
and
under
it,
so
it's
free
in
the
bowl.
Rub
oil
liberally
over
a
20cm
patch
of
worktop
and
flip
the
dough
on
to
it.
Pull

• Repeat
the
stretch
and

of
the
dough,
but
this
time
sit
the
dough
in
the
centre
of
the
tray.
With
the
tips
of
your
fingers
pointing

then

minutes.
• Stretch
out
the

the
tray,
peel
and
halve
the
onions,
then
press
into
the
dough.
Scatter
salt
and
rosemary
over
the
top,
and
bake
for
35-­‐40
minutes,
until
