This is the summer entertaining hack you didn’t know you needed. It’s an elevated take on a street-food classic – and so easy to prepare. Think smoky Viennas, caramelised onions and grilled peppers layered into soft, olive oil-rich bread.

Ingredients

Method
  • 6 T olive oil
  • 665 ml lukewarm water
  • 1 kg Woolworths Easy To Bake Focaccia Mix
  • 8 Woolworths Smoked Chicken Viennas
  • a pinch Maldon sea salt flakes
  • Toppings:

  • 2 onions, sliced and caramelised
  • 150 g grilled peppers
  • 3 spring onions
  • 90 g Woolworths Pickled Red Onions
  • To serve:

  • 4 T tomato sauce
  • 3 T mustard
  • 4 T Woolworths Aïoli
  • 1 1/2 T fresh coriander, chopped
  • 250 g Woolworths Hand Cooked Crisps

1. Add 2 T olive oil and the water to the focaccia mix. Prepare and prove the dough according to package instructions.

2. Preheat the oven to 230°C.

3. Turn the dough out into a prepared baking dish. Press the Viennas into the dough, spacing them evenly.

4. Drizzle 2 T olive oil over the focaccia and sprinkle generously with Maldon salt. Bake the focaccia for 25 minutes.

5. Slowly caramelise the onions in the remaining olive oil until golden and sweet.

6. Using a vegetable peeler, peel the spring onions into long, thin strips and place in ice water for 10–15 minutes to curl.

7. Remove the baked focaccia from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Slice it into portions and top each one with your choice of caramelised onions, grilled peppers, spring onion curls and pickled red onions.

8. Finish with tomato sauce, mustard, aïoli and fresh coriander.

9. Serve with the crisps.

Cook’s note: Store-bought grilled or roast peppers are perfect for this recipe. If charring your own, char whole peppers over an open flame or hot grill until blistered, then cover and steam for 10 minutes before peeling, deseeding and slicing.
