- Ingredients:
- 10
- Serves:
-
4-6
ingredients
- 3 onions, peeled and cut into thin rings
- water
- vinaigrette dressing (but you can use bottled)
- 1⁄4 cup water
- 3⁄4 cup cider vinegar (or wine or balsamic)
- 2 teaspoons table prepared mustard
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons superfine sugar (caster sugar)
- 1 cup olive oil
directions
- Separate the onion rings, and drop them into a large pot of cold water.
- Bring to the boil, and then simmer the rings until they are limp -- about 7 - 10 minutes. This will depend on how you think you prefer them. They are best when fully cooked.
- Drain the rings well in a colander or sieve.
- For the dressing, whisk everything well, until dissolved, except the olive oil.
- Then whisk in olive oil.
- Put onion rings either in a glass bowl, or in a clean glass canning jar.
- Cover with vinaigrette dressing, cover the bowl or put lid on the bottle, and marinate the onion rings for 24 - 48 hours. (Make vinaigrette with balsamic vinegar if you'd like brownish onion rings).
- To use, lift out as much as you want, and let the marinade drain off.
- Serve on top of a mixed salad, or as suggested in intro.

I'm a widow, retired, and I love cooking. I live on the coast in South Africa and I love seafood. You're welcome to my recipes (all kinds, definitely not just seafood!) Just remember that no recipe is ever cast in stone -- adjust to your taste!
