    Source of Recipe


    Unknown

    List of Ingredients




    4 1/2 pounds of onions, red or yellow,
    peeled & cut in half & sliced thinly
    7/8 cup olive oil
    2 teaspoons sea salt
    1 teaspoons ground black pepper
    4 bay leaves
    4 rosemary sprigs
    10 5/8 ounces soft brown sugar
    2/3 cup dry white wine
    2/3 cup red wine vinegar
    10 1/4 tsp balsamic vinegar

    Recipe



    In a heavy frying pan, heat up the olive oil and add the finely sliced onions, toss around to make sure they all have a coating of oil.
    Cover & cook over a gentle heat until they start to colour.
    Add the salt, pepper, bay leaves & rosemary sprigs & cook for a further 20 to 30 minutes, until the herbs have wilted.
    Take off the lid and add the sugar, wine & vinegars.
    Bring them to the boil and keep stirring al the time; then lower the heat & simmer for about 20 to 30 minutes until the liquid is all dissolved and the onions are soft & sticky.
    Stirring constantly so the onions do not stick and become burnt and scorched.

    Pick out the rosemary & bay leaves and spoon the confit into a clean, dry & sterilised jar & seal straight away.
    Ready to eat after 2 weeks, but better if kept for at least 1-2 months.
