Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Red onions
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 3 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Peel the red onions and slice them thinly into half-moons.
Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized skillet or saucepan over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet and sprinkle with the salt. Stir well to coat the onions in the oil.
Cook the onions for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften and become translucent.
Sprinkle the sugar over the onions and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the sugar to caramelize slightly.
Add the apple cider vinegar, water, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has reduced and the onions are soft and glossy.
Taste the relish and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Remove the skillet from the heat and allow the relish to cool slightly before serving.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
