Directions
Onion Flowers with Pecans, , Wonderful recipe I served these with BBQ’d Lamb and everyone loved them used Balsamic vinegar Thanks for a nice addition to my favorite recipes posted Jul 23, 2001, Additional comments – I baked the onions separately in large muffin tins and cut the baking time to 25 minutes lightly covered and 15 min uncovered I kept a little butter on the side that I drizzled over them when I added the nuts for the last 15 minutes, I had a disasterous outcome I coulnd’t figure out how to get the darn things to stand up with the root at the bottom There was no flat surface for them ?? They cooked much faster then they should have I ended up having several piles of pieces of onions which I threw (placed nicely) in a bowl and added a spoon We ate them anyway but the presentation was a bit embarassing 🙂
