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. Sautéed in butter or oil, they take on a sweet, caramelised flavour, which makes them perfect on a pastry base. Or an onion, sweated with garlic, then stewed with tomatoes, courgettes, a pepper and mushrooms magics your five a day into one simple sauce.

Potato and horseradish are a match made in heaven, and this alternative roast dinner side pairs them together perfectly. Swap your classic roasties for röstis – crisp, fiery potato röstis work wonderfully with roast beef and a dollop of horseradish cream
