Italian Onion Sauce

I bought some sauce onions intending to simmer them in balsamic vinegar, but I didn't have enough vinegar, so I adapted a recipe for Italian onion sauce I saw in a booklet.

Add salt sparingly at the end while tasting the sauce. Cook over low heat so as not to burn the sauce. I recommend using a thick-bottomed pan. For one 500 g jar full. Recipe by Brandy

Ingredients

  1. 500 gramsOnion (finely chopped)
  2. 1/2Carrot (finely chopped)
  3. 1 stalkCelery (finely chopped)
  4. 1stalk's worth Celery leaves (optional, finely chopped)
  5. 1/2 tbspParsley (finely chopped)
  6. 100 mlOlive oil
  7. 2to 5 tablespoons Sugar (I used brown sugar)
  8. 1 tspor more Salt
  9. 1 tbspBlack pepper
  10. 25 gramsWhole wheat flour

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Soak the onion in cold water. This prevents tears when you peel them. Finely chop the carrot, celery, celery leaves, parsley and onion.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and add the carrot, celery, celery leaves and parsley and sauté. Add the onion and keep sautéing.

  3. 3

    Add the sugar, black pepper (preferably cracked with a mortar and pestle) and whole wheat flour. Mix well and simmer over low heat for about 30 minutes. Season with salt, taste and add a little more if needed.

  4. 4

    Sterilize a jar, and pack the sauce in the jar. Store in the refrigerator after cooling, where it will keep for 3 weeks.

  5. 5

    I used a pressure cooker without the lid (no pressure used). The bottom of the pot is thick so food doesn't burn easily. I used 2 tablespoons of sugar.

  6. 6

    Serve with grilled fish and zucchini.

  7. 7

    Serve with cheese on toast, or use as a sandwich spread.

  8. 8

    Serve with roast beef.

  9. 9

    Use in salads.
