Red Onion Marmalade

  • Ready in:
  • 40 minutes
  • Serves:
  • 12
  • Complexity:
  • easy

Ingredients:

  • 1kg red onions
  • 100ml olive oil
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ½ teaspoons black pepper
  • 3 sprigs rosemary
  • 175g soft brown sugar
  • 175ml red wine vinegar
  • Method

    Thinly slice the onions.  In a large heavy based saucepan heat the oil and cook the onions until soft, but not too browned.  Add the salt, pepper and rosemary sprigs and cover and cook gently for a further 15 minutes until very soft.

    Remove the lid and add the vinegar and sugar.  Stir well.  Bring to a gentle boil and cook uncovered for a further 15-20 minutes until the liquid has been absorbed and the mixture is soft and sticky.  Stir frequently to prevent burning.

    Pick out the stalks of rosemary and transfer the mixture into a clean, dry, sterilised jar.  Cool and seal.  Store in the refrigerator.

    The marmalade will keep for two weeks and makes a lovely gift.
