Barbecued Pearl Onions with Garlic butter
Serves 4
Ingredients
1 packet of pearl onions
1 TBS of garlic butter
or
1 TBS vegan butter
or
1 TBS butter and 1 clove of minced garlic
1 tsp thyme or oregano
salt & pepper
Method
Bring a pot of water to the boil. Reduce to simmering. Add the onions from the packet.
Gently stir and simmer for 3 minutes.
Remove the onions with a strainer or spoon and place them in a bowl of ice water.
Take an onion out and slice off the root end. Then squeeze the onion from the pointed side, and it should pop out - peeled. If it doesn't, make a thin slice on the side and peel off the outer skin.
Place the peeled onion on a piece of tinfoil, and add the butter, salt & pepper, and herbs. Close up the tinfoil into a packet. Place the packet on the barbecue and cook on medium for about 20 minutes.
You can also place them in the oven, covered at 350F in a tinfoil container, or a glass dish. Stir occasionally.
Pearl onions are sweet depending on how you like them, they can be soft, or a little firm.
Use leftovers chopped in eggs, or on a salad.
