Gratineed Mustard Creamed Onions Recipes

MOM'S TRADITIONAL CREAMED ONIONS

Steps:

• Peel onions, and drop into boiling water. Cook until tender. Drain, reserving liquid. Set onions aside while you make the sauce.
• Melt butter or margarine in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour to make a paste. Mix together cooking water and milk. Add milk mixture slowly to the saucepan, stirring constantly, and cook until thickened. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add onions, and transfer to a serving dish.

MUSTARDY BAKED ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Slice the root off each onion to create a flat bottom, then carefully peel, leaving the onion whole. Cut a deep cross in the top of each, then poke in a sprig of rosemary, dot with butter and place in a roasting tray. Pour a little of the balsamic vinegar over each one and season. Wrap the tray in foil and bake in the oven for 30 mins. Meanwhile, mix together the mustard and sugar and set aside.
• Remove the tray from the oven, take off the foil and spoon a little of the mustard mixture onto each onion. Return to the oven for 15 mins, uncovered, to caramelise.

ONION AND MUSTARD GRAVY

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Over a gentle heat, melt the oil and butter in a large saucepan. Add the finely sliced onion and cover the pan with a lid. Cook the onions slowly for approximately 10 minutes or until the onions are soft and translucent. Have a peek now and again to make sure the onions are not browning.
• Add the sugar plus the balsamic vinegar to the onions and stir well. Cover again with the lid and continue to cook for a further 5 minutes, again taking care to make sure they do not burn.
• Remove the lid from the pan, raise the heat slightly and pour in the dark beef stock. Gently boil uncovered for 5 minutes to reduce the gravy by roughly a third.
• In a heatproof jug or bowl mix the corn flour/starch with the cold water to create a thin paste.
• Pour a little of the hot gravy into the cornflour mixture and mix thoroughly. A very thick paste will start to form so add more gravy to thin this down to create a thick pouring liquid.
• Pour the thickened gravy mixture back into the gravy in the pan, add your chosen mustard, raise the heat to a rolling boil and boil for 10 minutes or until the gravy thickens slightly.
• Taste the gravy to decide if you want more mustard, add if needed. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for a further 3 minutes. The gravy is now ready to serve. If not serving immediately keep warm until needed.

CREAMED ONION GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a gratin dish or medium casserole.
• Cut off the root and tip of the onions. Slice in half length-wise and peel. Lay the cut-side of the onion down and slice length-wise into thick wedges.
• In a Dutch oven or heavy pot, melt two tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and caramelized, about 40 minutes. Add the sherry and simmer until it evaporates. Remove the onions from the pan and pour through a fine mesh sieve. Let them drain while making the bechamel sauce. (Draining the onions prevents a runny gratin because the onions will continue to release more liquid in the oven.)
• In the same Dutch oven, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for one minute. Add the scalded milk and cook, whisking constantly, until the sauce is very thick. Remove from the heat. Fold in the Gruyere and stir until completely melted. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the onions to the cheese sauce and toss to thoroughly coat. Pour the onion mixture into the gratin dish.
• Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter and toss with the panko crumbs. Sprinkle over the top of the onions and bake until bubbly and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Serve warm.

MUSTARD GREENS AND ONIONS

Steps:

• In a large high-sided skillet, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add diced onion, and saute until translucent and beginning to brown, about 6 minutes. Add the prepared mustard greens, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Toss until greens are just wilted, adding more greens as they will fit into the pan. Toss with lemon juice just before serving.

CREAMY BAKED ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Peel and trim the roots of the onions but leave them whole. Cook in a large pan of boiling water for 25 mins until tender, then drain, reserving a little cooking water.
• Season the cream and mix in 2 tbsp of the onion water. When the onions are cool enough to handle, slice each in half through the root. Lay the onion halves, cut side down, in a large baking dish with the bay leaves. Pour over the cream, scatter with the Parmesan, and bake for 25 mins until the cream is bubbling and the onions are just beginning to brown.
