Sweet Onion Recipe

Ingredients

(For 6 People)

1 kg of white sweet onion
6 tbsp olive oil

For the sauce
2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
2 tbsp fresh thyme
3 tbsp dried oregano
2 tbsp sumac
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 tbsp flower honey
100 gr İçim Butter

Preparation

To prepare the sauce, crush the sesame well in a mortar. Add all the ingredients except the butter and mix well. Remix with the slightly soft İçim Butter that you brought to room temperature. Shape into a round shape, wrap it in cling film and keep it in the refrigerator.

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Cut off the ends of the onions without peeling them and place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle olive oil over them. Cover with baking paper and bake for 1 hour. Add 2 tablespoons of water and cook for another 25 minutes.

Cut a slice of the cooled oil and place it on the slits in the onion. Serve hot straight out of the oven
