Four-onion salsa


For real onion addicts! This is very good served with poppadoms before an Indian meal. The heat of the onions is balanced by the cool yoghurt.

  • 2 red onions, finely sliced

  • 4 spring onions, trimmed and finely sliced

  • 4 silverskin onions or mild shallots, cut into 6 or 8 pieces

  • Salt and black pepper

  • 115 g (4 oz) natural yoghurt

  • 125 ml (4 fl oz) soured cream

  1. Heat a small frying pan, then add the onion seeds and dry-fry for 30 seconds or so, until just fragrant.

  2. Turn into a bowl.

  3. Add the onions to the seeds and season well.

  4. Blend the yoghurt and soured cream together, then spoon into the onions and mix well. Serve as an accompaniment to spicy dishes.
