Caramelised Onions


Frying up onions is easy to go with a BBQ, hot dogs or a savory meal, however to make them a little tastier with just a little more effort - try caramelising them.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbs olive oil
  • 3 large red or brown onions, sliced
  • 2 tbs brown sugar
  • 1-2 tbs balsamic vinegar

Method

  1. Heat oil in a large frypan over low heat. Add the onions and a good pinch of salt and cook very slowly for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent them from catching. Don't be tempted to turn the heat up, as you don't want the onions to burn.
  2. When onions are softened and tinged golden, add sugar and balsamic - this will start the caramelisation process. Cook onion over low heat for a further 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sticky and caramelised. Use immediately, or store in the fridge, in a sterilised jar or plastic container, and use when required.
