Today's Foodie Friday vlog is up. I had a surplus of onions that I wanted to use up so I decided to make some chutney with them. I found an amazing recipe that had a slowcooker method so I decided to have a go. I started by slicing up the onions the night before. It took me half an hour!!! And the whole house stank of raw onions until the next morning!🧅
I added butter, oil and bay leaves and set the slowcooker to low. They simmered gently for 3 and a half hours.
Then I added the sugar, vinegar, salt and chilli flakes and set it to High (with the lid wedged open a little) for 7 hours in the end!
It was nice and sticky after simmering all day! And the house smelled a bit nicer 😋
This is what 2kg of onions looks like after all that!! The labels are leftovers from my Etsy shop days.
Ingredients:
- 2kg of red or brown onions (before peeling)
- 50ml oil
- 50g butter
- 2 bay leaves
