Vanilla Layer Bake with roasted chili

Method

1. Start by prepping your all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, eggs so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the yellow onion in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the vanilla layer and let it zaatar, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the eggs along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Add the cream and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a grating of hard cheese right before serving.
7. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
