Grilled stuffed onions

By Abigail Donnelly

Serves 6

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 25 minutes

Cooking Time 45 minutes

Ingredients

6 red onions, peeled
2 t butter
2 t oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped
100 g pancetta or bacon, chopped
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
5 g g fresh thyme
1⁄2 cup crème fraîche
100 g Grana Padano, grated

Method

Blanch the onions in boiling water until just tender. Cool slightly, slice off the tops, then remove the cores and chop. Set aside the onions.

Heat the butter and oil in a pan, add the chopped onions and fry for 5 minutes.

Add the garlic and pancetta and season to taste. Add the thyme and crème fraîche, turn off the heat and mix well.

Cool the filling slightly, then use to fill the onions. Place on a baking tray, top with the Grana Padano and grill in the oven or over the coals on a grid.

Cook's note: A comforting side to serve with fish or chicken.
