Pureed Roasted Onions Recipes

ROASTED RED ONIONS

Steps:

• Halve 2 pounds unpeeled red onions; toss in a large bowl with 1/4 cup olive oil, 1 teaspoon sweet smoked paprika and a pinch each of sugar and salt. Place the onions cut-side down on a baking sheet; roast at 450 degrees until soft and browned, 30 minutes.

HERB-ROASTED ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Remove the stem end of each onion and carefully slice off the brown part of the root end, leaving the root intact. Peel the onion. Stand each onion root end up on a cutting board and cut the onion in wedges through the root. Place the wedges in a bowl.
• For the dressing, combine the lemon juice, mustard, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Pour the dressing over the onions and toss well.
• With a slotted spoon, transfer the onions to a sheet pan, reserving the vinaigrette that remains in the bowl. Bake the onions for 30 to 45 minutes, until tender and browned. Toss the onions once during cooking. Remove from the oven, and drizzle with the reserved dressing. Sprinkle with parsley, season to taste and serve warm or at room temperature.

EASY ROASTED ONIONS (WITH VARIATIONS)

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 F.
• Trim and peel the onions, removing and discarding their stem and root ends along with their papery peels. You can leave the smallest onions whole, but you will want to cut most onions into halves or quarters, depending on how big they are. Bigger than bite-size is fine, but you don't want diners wrestling with giant whole onions that are tricky to cut.
• Put the onions in a large baking dish (they should easily fit in a single layer for the best, most even roasting).
• Drizzle the onions with the oil and toss to coat them thoroughly and evenly. If you've cut them, arrange the onions so the cut-side is down, facing the pan (this will help them brown nicely).
• Sprinkle the onions with salt (sprinkle from a few inches above the onions so the salt falls more or less evenly over them).
• Bake the onions, turning them once or twice if you think of it until they're completely tender to the bite and browning on the edges-about 30 minutes total.
• Drizzle the onions with vinegar before serving, if you like. Start with a smaller amount of vinegar and add more to taste if you like the effect.

ROASTED ONIONS

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to lowest position; heat to 425 degrees.
• Cut onions in half; toss with oil and a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper. Place, cut-side down, on a lipped cookie sheet.
• Roast until tender and cut surfaces are golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Adjust seasonings; drizzle with balsamic vinegar.

PUREE OF ONION

Steps:

• Place sliced onions, water, herbes de Provence, oil, salt and pepper in a stainless-steel saucepan, bring to boil over high heat and stir well. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook gently for 30 to 35 minutes.
• Sprinkle cornmeal on top of onion mixture, stirring it in as it is added. Cover pan and continue cooking for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. Using a whisk or spoon, mix vigorously for 1 to 2 minutes to break the onions into smaller pieces and create a puree.
• Add cream, stir, bring to a boil and remove immediately from heat.

ONION PUREE

Steps:

• Slice the onions into very thin rings.
• Place the rings in a pan and pour in cold water to cover.
• Bring to a boil and simmer for two minutes.
• Then drain and refresh under cold water.
• Place half the butter, the star anise and the blanched onions in a large pot over medium heat.
• Sweat for 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add the two liters of water and chicken wings, then bring to a boil, turn down the heat and simmer.
• After about three hours, the liquid should have reduced down to a syrup.
• If it is reducing too quickly, add some more cold water and lower the heat.
• After three hours, if you are still left with some excess liquid, increase the heat and reduce until only a little remains.
• Leave to cool, then remove the star anise and the chicken and liquidise.
• Pass the resulting purée through a fine-mesh sieve or, for a more rustic finish, leave it as is.
• To serve, stir in cream to taste, whisk in the remaining butter and season with salt.
• It will take a lot of salt, but this is important because it balances out any bitter flavours.

Drizzle over the oil and balsamic vinegar, season, then get your hands in and toss the onions to coat. Cover the tin with foil and roast for 40 mins until tender.
• Remove the foil and drizzle over the maple syrup, then return to the oven, uncovered, for 20-30 mins, until the onions are caramelised.
