Caramelised Red Onions
Soft, richly flavoured, red onions cooked slowly to caramelise their natural sugars.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 Red onion large, sliced
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1-2 tbsp Balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a low heat. Add the onions and a good pinch of salt and cook very slowly for 15-20 minutes, stirring them occasionally to prevent them from catching. Don't be tempted to turn the heat up, as you don't want the onions to burn.
- When the onions are softened and tinged golden, add the sugar and balsamic vinegar, this will start the caramelisation process. Cook the onions over low heat for a further 5-10 minutes, stirring occaisionally, until sticky and caramelised.
