This recipe for stuffed red onions may sound fiddly, but it’s actually very simple.
Ingredients
- 16 small red onions, peeled
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 16 heaped tbsp
- Sausagemeat stuffing
Method
- 1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan180°C/ gas 6. Slice the top off the onions, 1-2cm down, and discard. Place in a roasting tin, drizzle with the oil and roast for 20 minutes until tender. Leave until cool enough to handle.
- 2. Take each onion and push the centre out from underneath so they look like little hollow balls – you can chop the removed insides and add to the sausagemeat stuffing, if you like.
- 3. Fill the onions with sausagemeat stuffing and roast in the oven for 20 minutes until the filling is cooked.
