Onion recipes

Chopping an onion is the first step in so many recipes, it’s no wonder cooks rely on them as a base-note flavour for stocks, soups, stews and sauces. Caramelise slowly and add to sauces and stews, keep whole and stuff with herby fillings, or fry until golden and crisp for a classic pub treat.
