Red onion shortbread



If you like cheese scones then you will like this, a savoury snack that has a little more than just a cheese and onion to it. It is a just different and I think a welcome thing to fine in your lunch box if you fancy a change from the standard range of things that you normally get , so give it a go.

You will need
1 tbsp olive oil
2 red onions
330g/11½oz plain flour
200g/7oz cold butter
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 egg yolks
125g/4½oz pecorino cheese

Now you need to dice your onions and fry them off so they are nice and soft , but do not let them get brown . Just sweat them off with the oil for about 15 minutes so they are nice and soft.

Now line a backing tray with some greaseproof paper. Then get the  blend the flour and butter together so you get a fine breadcrumb finish, you can do this in a food processor if you like. Season with salt and pepper then add the egg yolks, cheese and cooked red onions. Then mix this together to make a dough.

Now set your oven to 180c/350f and let it preheat before you bake the biscuits.

Roll out the dough so you have a 1cm to ½in thickness. Then using a cutter or a knife, cut out shapes of your biscuits then  place them onto the lined baking tray.

Then all you have to do is bake them for about 10-15 minutes, or until golden-brown.

Now if you want a real treat add some poppy seeds as well , now they are really nice.
