Onion Rosemary Focaccia

 Hi
Focaccia is an Italian flat bread , usually topped with onion, meat, herbs and olive oil. It is pronounce as fo'katt[a] according to wikipedia. God knows how many times I have ordered this in the restaurant pronouncing it as fokesia...lol...The bearer must have laughed too. Anyway coming back to this bread, it is similar to the pizza dough and is typically rolled and pressed by hand, and multiple dimple or wells are created on the surface and olive oil mixed with herbs are spread across filling these wells

Now transfer this to a wide mouthed bowl and knead for 2-3 minutes to get the soft pliable dough. Smear the bowl and the dough with olive oil. Cover it and let it rest for 1-1 1/2 hour for it to double in size
Take out the dough, punch down a little.

Meanwhile prepare the topping by mixing the olive oil with cut onions and finely cut fresh rosemary
