This Onion Jam is by far one of the easiest and fastest recipes to help enhance the flavour of your sandwich, burger, panini or toast.
For a sweet tooth like me, this is a recipe from the heavens.
It is great especially for people who travel extensively since you can make it fresh, control the amount of sugar and not rely on over-processed food which is usually unhealthy.
Onion Jam ingredients
- 3/4 medium-sized Onions
- 1/4 cup oil (use butter if you want the non-vegan version)
- Small barks of cinnamon – 2
- Aniseed flowers – 2
- Cardamom – 2
- 2 teaspoons sugar/jaggery/coconut sugar (as per taste)
Method
- Heat oil in a flat skillet/pan
- Throw in the spices to extract as much flavour as possible
- Chop onions (I like mine to be cut in long slices) and add them to the pan. Caramelize slowly on a low flame. Midway add sugar
- Once done take off from the heat and ensure that you do not eat the whole spices
- Put it in the fridge or have it warm over a slice of bread, pancake, sandwich, panini
There you go with the Onion Jam recipe. Like so many things, it can be used with sandwiches, bread, pancakes, panini, burger, etc.
I have a burger recipe here that goes really well with the onion jam.
