I do all the cooking in my house, nude.
I do onions with pork chops. Only these are REALLY YUMMY onions. The inherent danger of doing this recipe nude adds an element of expectation not normally experienced in a household meal. I can never appreciate why women ignore these fundamental observations.
You get your skittle hot...
You warm your george foreman grill (or equal).
Put the pork chops in the grill to start cooking them.
Slice 3 large onions (trust me.. lol) into half rings and finely chop a clove of garlic...
Warm a dash of peanut oil with a splash of sesame oil.
Add the onions/garlic and stir constantly until just a little browned...
Toss in a tablespoon of brown sugar, a tablespoon of seeded mustard (what's that french one?), and three tablespoons of home made apple sauce... mix that all through until the onions are caramelised...
Check your meat... should be ready...
Remove the onions from the pan and form a mountain on each plate.
Stack a pork chop on top of each mountain...
Dollop a little bit of apple sauce on each chop...
Serve with boiled potato in their jackets and sour cream.. garnished with a little bit of corianda.
Oh man.. am I hungry right now. That was a nasty trick Moon :)

Japanese Onion Soup
The basic Japanese soup that's given out as an appetizer at most Japanese restaurants. Very mild, a bit salty, and a touch of tang. It's a very improvisable recipe; most of the ingredients' quantities can be changed according to taste.
Ingredients
1/2 stalk Celery, chopped
1 Small onion, chopped
1/2 Carrot, chopped
1 t Grated fresh ginger root
1/4 t Minced fresh garlic
2 t Chicken stock
3 t Beef bouillon granules
1 cup Chopped fresh shiitake mushrooms
2 quarts Water
1 cup Baby portobello mushrooms, sliced
1 t Minced fresh chives
Preparation
In a large saucepan or stockpot, combine the celery, onion, carrot, ginger, garlic, and a few of the mushrooms. Add chicken stock, beef bouillon, and water. Place the pot over high heat, and bring to a rolling boil. When the mixture reaches boiling turn off heat and cover.Place all of the remaining mushrooms into a separate pot. When the boiling mixture is done, place a strainer over the pot with the mushrooms in it. Strain the cooked soup into the pot with the mushrooms. Discard strained materials.Serve the broth with mushrooms in small porcelain bowls, and sprinkle fresh chives over the top. Use Asian soup spoons for an elegant effect.

Cajun Onion Bloomers Recipe
Courtesy Paula Deen
Peanut oil, for frying
4 large onions
Beer Batter, recipe follows
Cajun seasoning, optional
Ranch dressing, optional
Fill a large cast iron Dutch oven with enough peanut oil to completely cover an onion by 1-inch. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F over medium heat. Slice top tip of onions off, but do not disturb the root end and gently peel off outer skin. With a paring knife, starting 1/2- inch from the bottom of the onion, slice down to top of onion and continue at 1/4-inch intervals until onion is sliced all the way around (like a mum flower). Gently shake each onion to open the "petals" more. Gently pick up onion and spoon batter onto onion ensuring every part is coated, then gently allow to drain slightly. Carefully place onion root side down into the pan of hot oil and allow it to cook until light brown in color, about 5 to 8 minutes. Remove onion with a slotted spoon and use a knife to pull apart petals that are stuck together. Place onion back into the oil but this time top side down. When the onion turns golden brown, about 5 minutes, remove it with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining onions. Shake onions with Cajun seasoning and serve with ranch dressing as a dipping sauce.
Beer Batter
2 1/2 cups beer
2 cups all-purpose flour
Pinch Cajun seasoning
Pinch salt
Whisk together beer, flour and seasonings; let sit on the counter for several hours.

One of my favorites is a dish my father used to make and called Marine Corps potatoes. Put a couple tablespoons of bacon grease in a pan to heat. (You can use margarine, but it's not quite as good.) Thin slice 2-3 medium peeled potatoes into the pan, along with a chopped (fairly big pieces) medium onion. Season with salt, pepper and a tablespoon or so of sugar to caramelize. Mix well and cook on medium high heat. Cover and toss around occasionally until potatoes and onions are lightly browned and soft. You can add more salt and pepper as you like to taste. This goes really well with a grilled steak or barbecued chicken.

I like making caramelised onions...I have them over pasta with Parmesan or add to casseroles...the keep for a while in the fridge too.
You just slice your onions into rings, fry in a little olive oil, add some vinegar (balsamic, red or white wine) or ver juice and bit of sugar if you like. Stir together. Cook covered on a low heat for about 15 to 20 minutes then uncover and stir until nice and golden brown...
