Caramelized Onions

Caramelized onions are great alongside cold meats, on top of steaks, in onion soup or tarts, or on top of a pizza. They’re pretty easy to make at home, and if you make a big batch, cover the container tightly, and they’ll keep for up to three weeks in the fridge.

Caramelized Onions
Ingredients:
Olive oil - 2 tbsp.
Onion - 3 large (sliced)
Brown sugar - 2 tbsp.
Balsamic vinegar - 1-2 tbsp.
Method of Preparation:
  1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a low heat. Add the onions and a good pinch of salt, and cook slowly for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent them from catching. Don’t turn the heat up, as you don’t want the onions to burn.
  2. when the onions have softened and have become slightly golden, add the sugar and balsamic vinegar – this will start the caramelization process.
  3. Cook the onions for a further 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sticky and caramelized.
  4. Use immediately, or store in the fridge, in a sterilized container, and use when you need them.
