I'm not a confident cook ( massive understatement) if I follow a recipe I have to follow it to the letter as I don't have enough skills, knowledge or confidence to adapt it. So here's the problem - my DD hates onions - she doesn't like the texture and can spot a finely diced tiny onion at 100 paces. I'd love to make all these amazing stews, sauces and recipes but loads contain onion. Can I just leave it out or what's a good taste substitute that hasn't got the texture - celery is a no go. I don't want to waste food by experimenting.
And before anyone says just serve her onion - well I do but she doesn't enjoy the food and although has got past the tantrums and whining stage she is clearly not happy and I want her to have a healthy relationship with food as she enters the teenage years and besides I wouldn't like to be forced to eat something I don't like.
TL;DR - can I just leave onions out of recipes?
