Fire-Roasted Yanky Onions

Ingredients

• 6 large brown onions, peeled
• Heavy-duty aluminium foil (double layer)
• 3 tbsp butter, softened
• 2 tbsp BlixSam Yanky Spice
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Method

1. Prepare a good bed of hot braai coals.
2. Mix the softened butter with the BlixSam Yanky Spice.
3. Cut a deep cross into the top of each onion, without cutting all the way through.
4. Spoon the seasoned butter into the cuts, allowing it to seep into the onion.
5. Wrap each onion tightly in two layers of heavy-duty foil.
6. Place the foil-wrapped onions directly into the hot coals and lightly cover with more coals.
7. Cook for 45–60 minutes, turning every 15 minutes, until the onions are soft, sweet and caramelised.
8. Carefully unwrap the onions, season with salt and black pepper and sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.
9. Serve straight from the foil or transfer to a serving platter.
