Baked Pearl Onions

Baked pearl onions are a very appetizing side dish to accompany meat or fish dishes 🙂

Onions are another type of vegetable often used in cooking: in sautés, to flavor first and second courses, and even in savory pies.

Their flavor enhances any dish you prepare 😉 and I also use them often.

I like any variety of onions: red, white, golden, and borettane.

Today for lunch I prepared borettane onions by baking them.

They are delicious and made very simply with few ingredients that you usually always have at home: a little oil, water, and salt.

Since one leads to another, I suggest making abundant portions: I used 500 g but I think for 4 people you would need 1 kg.

If you have aromatic herbs, you can add them as you like: thyme, bay leaf, rosemary, oregano, etc.

P.S.: Other recipes I recommend trying are:

  • Preheat the oven to 392°F in static mode and bake for about 50 – 60 minutes or until they become golden. Turn them halfway through cooking.

    The cooking time is indicative and depends on the size of the pearl onions: they are done when they start to caramelize.

    Serve the baked pearl onions hot.

    Have a nice continuation and good evening to everyone 😀
