Of course Miamla. Hang on and i will post the recipe

miamla · 13/12/2009 22:40

that'll be great, thanks Sazz. i'll make some especially for my mil

SazzlesOnASled · 13/12/2009 22:43

Red Onion Marmalade

85ml olive oil
1.5kg red onions very finely sliced
120 ml sherry vinegar
2 tablespoons of creme de cassis
S&P

Heat oil, add onions & cook slowly until the onions are very soft and the sugary juices have caramelised and look thick, dark & sticky (about 1-1.5 hrs)
Add vinegar, creme de cassis and cook for 10 mins
Spoon into sterilised jars and top with a little oil to seal

Should last 6-8 weeks according to the recipe. I have kept mine for longer but normally gets demolished or handed to friends/family much quicker than that!

SazzlesOnASled · 13/12/2009 22:44

Anyone wishing to enjoy some with Single Gloucester cheese though will have to come here as it is only made by 3 cheesemakers locally
