Caramelized Onions With Eggs Recipes

CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND EGGS

Steps:

• 1. Melt the butter in a medium pan and slowly sauté the onions over very low heat.
• 2. Add the sugar (if necessary, add a little bit of water)
• 3. Cook until the onions are completely softened and caramelized. The best way to caramelize onions in a pan; Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. When the onions begin to turn a brownish color, turn heat to low and cook the onions for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once they are a dark, deep brown and sticky with caramelization, they're done!
• 4. Make 4 wells among the onions.
• 5. Break an egg into each well, and season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• 6. Cover the pan with a lid and cook until the whites are done to your liking and the yolks are still runny.
• 7. Garnish with a sprinkle of sumac and enjoy.

CREAMY EGGS AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• Bring the eggs to a boil in water to cover. Boil 5 minutes, remove from heat, and let stand 20 minutes. (This technique avoids the green ring around the yolk.) Drain and peel and cut into 1/2-inch slices.
• Slice the onions into rings. Melt the butter in a very large skillet over low heat and add the onions. Salt them lightly, stir to coat with butter, cover the pan and cook for about 10 miutes. Stir, cover, and cook for about 10 minutes longer, stirring occasionally. Uncover and let most of the liquid cook away. Onions should be very tender and browned.
• Sprinkle flour over the onions and stir until no dry flour is visible. Whisk in the milk and cook, stirring or whisking, until thickened, about 4 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the sliced eggs and heat through.
• TO SERVE TO GUESTS -- sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and/or paprika, because this dish is a little bland-looking. ADVANCE PREP -- the eggs can be boiled and refrigerated up to 3 days in advance. The onions can be caramelized 3 days in advance and refrigerated.

DEVILED EGGS WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat a medium skilllet over low heat. When hot, add the butter and oil. When the butter has melted, add the onions. Sprinkle with the sugar. Cook over low heat for 30 minutes or more, stirring occasionally, until dark and caramelized. Don't stir too much or they won't brown, but watch so they don't burn or stick to the pan. Once the onions are caramelized, remove from heat and drain on paper towels.
• Hard-cook the eggs; once they're cool, peel them. Cut each egg in half; place the yolks in a mixing bowl, and the whites on a serving platter.
• Prepare the filling. With a fork, mash the yolks. Add the onions and about 1/2 cup of yogurt; stir to combine. Stir in more yogurt (up to 1 cup total) until the mixture is a creamy consistency. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Fill the eggs. I find the easiest way to do this is with a ziptop bag. Open the bag and fold the top over the outside. Scrape the filling into the bag, pushing the filling well into a bottom corner of the bag. Close the bag, making sure to get out as much air as you can. Cut a small hole in the bottom corner and gently squeeze the filling into each egg white. Top each appetizer with a sprinkle of chopped chives. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• TIPS: Everyone has their own methods of cooking and peeling eggs. I follow the steps on this site: http://whatscookingamerica.net/Eggs/BoiledEggs.htm It has all the info from the Incredible Edible Egg site, but all in one place. * Most people cut the eggs in half lengthwise. For a different presentation, cut them crosswise, then cut a tiny sliver off the bottom of each piece so it will sit without wobbling. (If a piece seems very shallow, you can hollow it out a bit more with a melon baller.) This is great if you don't have a serving platter specifically for deviled eggs. * I use a fork to make the filling because I like texture, and I want the little onion bits to show. If you prefer a perfectly smooth consistency, you can use a food processor. * If you're bringing the eggs somewhere, you can prepare the filling in advance, store it in the ziptop bag, then fill the eggs at the location. * Also, you can hard-cook the eggs ahead of time; hard-cooked eggs will keep in the fridge for several days.
• SUBSTITUTIONS: I use nonfat plain yogurt in an effort to use less fat, and Greek style because it's thicker. You could use mayonnaise, sour cream, or a combination. * The chives add a little flavor zing, and indicate that it's an onion-flavored dish. The measurement is approximate; I just put a pinch on each egg. Instead of chives you could use sliced green onion (scallion), and if you want to get fancy you could make green onion flowers.
