Was doing a bit of filing today and come across the pictures thought some of you might need some inspiration!
Although I would have to say it is a bit late now to get specimens like these;
Wow!
Very impressive... soup anyone?
Impressive.
Onion gravy for Yorkshire puds or maybe cheese and onion frittata for me.
They're enough to make me cry!
I wear my kitchen reading glasses when I chop onions. Helps reduce the tear flow.
Perfect for tobacco onions !
They look wonderful :) Obelixx your cheese and onion frittata sounds good :)

That looks remarkably like Delia's red onion tarte tatin! That's a favourite anyway but especially when I have vegetarian friends to feed. Sometimes I sneak a layer of goat's cheese log slices on top of the onions before the pastry goes on. Yum.
I agree, these are based on very old traditional French and Swiss recipes. My Auntie used to do a lovely Swiss Böllewähe (onion tart) with bacon crispy bits. Love the idea of goat's cheese too for a veggie version. :wave:
