PICKLED ONIONS

The humble onion,.......

Many people have a love hate relationship with onions, onion breath, so many names that i'm not fond of.

Anyhu, I bumped into this simple recipe that promised to knock my socks off. I tried it out and well, i love it.

The first time i tried it out i used the white and red onion. The 2nd time round (shown above) i only had the red onion. So we can say that it swings both ways :)

                           INGREDIENTS
                          # 1 Large onion, red

                            #  Juice of 1 lime

                           # 1 tsp cummin seeds

                       #  1 tbsp olive oil

                    METHOD

1. Slice the onions (feel free to use a mix of both red and white) into rings and seperate the rings carefully
2. Place the onions in a bowl and pour the lime juice and olive oil and mix.
3. Cover with cling foil and refrigerate for an hour.
4. When you are ready to serve pour the cummin seeds and toss the onions and serve.

Best served with steak, potato gratin, mashed potatoes :)
