Cheese and Caremlised Onion toasitie recipe:

4 Large red onions, sliced finely

½ brown sugar

60ml olive oil

3 Tbspn balsamic onion

Method:

– On a low heat, sweat onions down for until all of the liquids gone and the onion is translucent, you don’t want any colour on the onions.

– Add your sugar and balsamic and keep cooking on a really low heat until the sugars have caramelised and the onions are brown and sticky, usually takes a couple of hours in total.

For the sandwich I’ve spread a thin amount of dijon with sour cream added the caramelised onion and lashings of Appanzelle cheese, microwave for a minute so you don’t have to toast for too long and make sure you butter the outside, absolute perfection.
