Directions
- 1
For the caramelised onions, place 2 tbsp of olive oil into a medium, heavy based saucepan with the sliced brown onions and a good pinch of salt. Give this a good stir, then place over a medium heat, cover with a lid and let them cook for 3 minutes until they begin to sweat and soften. Then stir and replace the lid, continuing to cook for 3 more minutes before removing the lid and continuing to cook for 10-15 minutes until they begin to caramelise and become golden but still soft. Set aside.
