Roasted Onions and Green Beans..or Beans kura;)

This recipe had me in splits. I came across this when I was reading somewhere about the nutritional benefits of Onions ;) Another reminder to the world about the evolved Indian cuisine?:D


Recipe

Roasted Red Onions and Green Beans

Makes 8 servings

5 medium red onions
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp kosher salt
1/4-1/2 tsp black pepper
2 lbs green beans or French green beans, trimmed

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Peel the onions and cut into lengthwise quarters. Toss with the vinegar and olive oil. Add the salt and pepper.
3. Place on a baking sheet lightly oiled with cooking spray. Roast the onions until golden brown, about 20 minutes, then sprinkle lightly with water and continue roasting another 20 minutes.
4. Rinse the green beans in cold water, then drain. Place in a covered dish and microwave until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain.
5. Combine the roasted onions with the steamed green beans. Adjust seasoning, if needed, and serve.

Hey,

Thanks for the nice recipe, will definitely try this weekend, hmmmmmmmmm after seeing your pictures I really don't think you are a person who counts on calories , just kidding , read most of your posts, they look really nice , I never had the habit of writing on blogs or reading just started with your blog, I got one question for you, why do you think people write about themselves in blogs including many events in their personsal life such that even strangers in net can read it , to satisfy their literary interests, or to analyse and keep track of their daily events, or just for some publicity, hope you will answer this

Have fun
