Sweet Caramelised Onion

I have been meaning to put this recipe on the website for a little while. Everytime I serve these caramelised onions I always get asked how they are done. It is a very simple dish once you know how, and the addition of sugar and brandy really makes a difference. If you don't have brandy don't worry, I have used port and on one occasion bourban, it was still fantastic.
I cook this dish when I make the Bruschetta dish we were served at the Degustation dinner, or when I want to give bangers and mash a lift.
Ingredients:
6 Onions sliced into rings
1 ½ T/s Olive Oil
1 ½ T/s Butter
1 ½ T/s Sugar
3 T/s Brandy
salt to taste
Method:
Melt butter in saucepan with oil, onion, and sugar. Stir until coated with oil.

Cover and sweat on a low heat for 20 minutes stirring regularly.

Uncover pan and continue to cook and stir until caramelised, approx 15 minutes. Deglaze with Brandy and cook over a low heat until evaporated. Enjoy!!

Mum definitely deserves the hamper, because she is an amazing woman that has brought up 3 kids through tough times. She is the best mum a son could ask for.
She's had it tough, working hard
deserving much more than just a card
So let's raise a glass and toast her true
The best person in the world - Mum, that's you!
Thanks for the info on Rasa Malaysia's book. I used to visit her website for recipes but some time ago, igot a new PC and forgot to bookmark it!
You're too modest Julie! You did a great job with the cake! :D
Yellow strawberries and cream is just perfect for mum as a reward for putting up with two kids who were a pain in the bum.
I would have loved to have seen those martini glasses! Hope Miss A had a lovely time celebrating turning 5 :D
It shouldn't. It should go to me as whilst trying to make sure my mum, step-mum, MIL, Step-MIL, 3 x Grandmas are spoilt on Mother's Day, I always seem to get forgotten!
My poor old mum is battling to care for my step dad who has advanced Parkinsons. My real dad who has had a stroke still expects her to be there for him, my bro is going bankrupt and she lives two states away from her only gransdon. Her life has little joy- JUst wish for one thing nice to happen to her. We all love our mums, good luck to you all!
Perfect place to relax and forget about all the troubles we have in the city and just unwind ~ can't wait to go to somewhere like this hehe
