Caramelised Onions

Don’t make the mistake of thinking that caramelised onions are a meal unto themselves. That being said, if done right, it will be hard to stop eating them. Always remember… They are a condiment, not a main!

As such they will make a great accompaniment to steak or hamburgers.

Ingredients

- 3 Large Onions - 1 tbsp Butter
- 2 tbsp Brown Sugar - 1 tsp Balsamic Vinegar

Instructions

Halve and slice the onions. Place into a pan with the butter and heat over a low heat for approximately 20 minutes or until they become clear, soft and golden. If the onions appear to stick to the pan at any point feel free to add a little water (or beer!) to free them up.

Add the brown sugar and vinegar and continue to cook for a further 5 minutes or until the sugar has dissolved and the vinegar has reduced. The end result (which you should taste to check) will be a sweet, chutney-ish flavour.

Feel free to use straight away, although it will keep for a couple of weeks in a sealed container in the fridge.
