What to do with the onions

30 replies

Someone has left a food parcel on our doorstep this morning-bread, milk, fruit and 31 red onions. What on Earth can I cook with 31 onions?

We’re vegetarian so french onion soup is out the equation.

We had this problem a couple of weeks ago and made this, it was delicious: www.allrecipes.com/recipe/11868/onion-pasta/

I've made vegetarian French onion soup many times and it's always been delicious - never have it with beef stock though so can't compare :) This pasta with caramelised onion and feta is one of my favourite meals. Really easy and full of flavour

That's a lot of onions!

We got 2kg on an order once, I split it up -

Veggie lasagne, chop and freeze, chunky veg soup, quiche, chilli, ratatouille, slice and freeze or slice with other veg and freeze for a general base mix for spag bol etc
We also just added onion to things like pasta, omelettes, salads, on tuna filled baked potatoes etc

I love the fact that you counted them Grin
Roast veg is always improved with red onions- they'll keep well til you get some courgettes/ sweet potatoes/ cherry tomatoes/ peppers
Or grill on skewers with peppers and mushrooms

I had onion hating DC too, because if the texture I used to bung them in a food processor before cooking.

When I'm feeling organised I still do, along with carrots and celery and freeze the mix in small portions ready to start casseroles/soups.
