My Golden Pear: RED ONION MARMALADE

Tuesday 26 June 2012

RED ONION MARMALADE

We don't often eat savoury relishes but if we do my favourite has to be red onion marmalade.  The sticky, sweet onions are particularly good with red meat and offset any of the salty cheeses beautifully.  Goats cheese and red onion marmalade - beautiful!!  If you can't find red onions then substitute with normal brown onions.  The marmalade can be bottled and will keep in the refrigerator for up to two months.
 
My hubby is away on a business trip tonight so I decided to treat myself to a  steak sandwich.  I found some lovely rustic bread which I heated briefly in the oven.  Whilst the bread was heating I fried my topside steak in olive oil - adding rock salt and ground pepper - 2 minutes on either side.  Once cooked I let it rest for a couple of minutes, sliced it up and added it to the warm bread with the pan juices.  I then added some warm red onion marmalade to the top and finished off with some chopped parsley.  Ten minutes in total and I had this gorgeous sandwich.  I wonder if my hubby's slap up dinner tonight was as good as this?
