Glazed Pearl Onions With Raisins And Almonds Recipe

Ingredients

2 pounds pearl onions

1 cup dry sherry

1/4 cup raisins

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup water

2 tablespoons butter

1 teaspoon dried thyme

2/3 cup slivered almonds,

4 teaspoons wine vinegar

Preparation

Boil onions for 3 minutes to loosen skins. Cut root end from onions and squeeze out onions.

Combine onions, sherry, raisins, honey, water, butter, and thyme in heavy large skillet. Boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to very low; cover and simmer until liquid evaporates and onions begin to carmelize, stirring often, about 45 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and remove from heat. Stir in almonds and sherry wine vinegar ( and a few teaspoons of water if dry), and serve warm.
