Ingredients

1kg Brown Onions

1 Dried Clove

1 Bay Leaf

1 Cinnamon Quill

50ml Balsamic Vinegar

50ml Port Wine

50g Sugar (white or brown)

pinch Salt

Preparation

Thinly slice the onions and then put in a heavy based pot on really low heat with the spices. Cook for 3-4 hours until the onions have caramelised and gone brown. Meanwhile put the vinegar, port and sugar in a pot and reduce by two thirds. Add vinegar mix to onions once they have finished cooking and season with salt. Pour hot into sterilised jars and cap. It will keep for ages because of the high level of sugar.
