Fugazzeta: Stuffed Argentinian-Style Pizza

Fugazzeta is a legendary cornerstone of the Buenos Aires pizza scene, where Italian tradition meets Argentinian abundance. This thick-crusted marvel is stuffed with a decadent amount of melted cheese and topped with a sweet, slightly caramelized layer of thinly sliced onions. Unlike its lighter counterparts, it is a hearty, substantial dish meant to be savoured slowly, often accompanied by a glass of cold beer. Every bite offers a satisfying contrast between the soft, pillowy dough and the rich, molten interior. It is simple, unpretentious, and deeply satisfying.

lightbulb Chef's tips

Soak the sliced onions in ice-cold water for at least 30 minutes before baking; this removes their harsh 'bite' and ensures they become sweet and tender in the oven. For the best crust, use a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet to get a crispy bottom.

All done!
