A while back I had a few spare onions so I made onion jam with them. Now I can't stop. I keep putting it on everything; it's taking over my life.
Anyways, here's the recipe:
- Peel 4 onions (or more), slice & dice as much as you can be bothered to
- Add 2 tbsp oil to a pan, set to low heat and add onions. Add generous pinch of salt and stir.
- Boring part: caramelise for 30 mins, stir regularly, add a little water as and when the onions start to catch or blacken
- Mix together 2 tbsp brown sugar with 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar and add to onions - stir and reduce for 5 mins
- You should have a jammy, spreadable consistency. Take off the heat and serve as hot condiment, or store in the fridge and use later as a cold condiment. Smear it all over yourself if you so desire.
- Lasts about a week refrigerated, if you can even leave it that long.
I've been using it on homemade burgers, pizzas and italian subs - gimme suggestions cause I'm just gonna keep making the stuff indefinitely, or until I get sick of it.
