Best Confit Of Onions With Labneh Sauce Recipes

CONFIT OF ONIONS WITH LABNEH SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oil in nonstick frying pan, and add onions. Reduce heat to low, and cook very slowly, adding a little water if necessary, until onions become golden brown. This may take as long as 30 minutes. The longer you cook, the more flavor in your confit.
• Remove onions to a bowl, and add pomegranate concentrate if desired, mixing well.
• Place labneh in another bowl. Add coriander and salt and pepper to taste. Place dollop of labneh on each latke, and top it with the confit of onions topped with a fresh sprig of cilantro.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add onions, fennel, thyme, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often, until brown, about 45 minutes. (If necessary, add a splash of water to keep onions from sticking.) Add sherry and Worcestershire; cook until evaporated, about 5 minutes. Let cool completely.
• Stir together labneh, garlic, and 1 teaspoon salt. Spread into a bowl or plate; top with onion mixture. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon oil, sprinkle with more thyme, and serve with crackers and crudités.

DAVID TANIS'S ONION CONFIT

Steps:

• Cut onions in half from top to bottom (not crosswise). With a paring knife, peel each onion half. Lay each onion half flat side down. Holding the knife at a slight angle, cut away and discard the hard root end. Using a sharp knife, cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
• Put a large heavy-bottomed pot, preferably enameled cast iron, over medium-high heat. Melt butter, then add all the sliced onions and stir to coat. Sprinkle with sugar and season generously with salt and pepper. Continue stirring until onions begin to wilt and soften, without browning, about 5 to 8 minutes.
• Add bay leaves, thyme, cayenne, vinegar and wine. Reduce heat to medium and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until onion mixture is quite soft and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 30 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. Remove and discard bay leaves and thyme. Serve warm.
