A delicious pasta dish with a smooth, creamy sauce made from caramelized onions, perfect as a hearty meal.
Ingredients
- pasta (8 ounces)
- onion (2 )
- butter (2 tablespoons)
- oil (3 tablespoons)
- white sugar (1 teaspoon)
- salt (0 )
- black pepper (0 )
- sherry vinegar (1 tablespoon)
- water (0.25 cup)
- milk (0.5 cup)
- garlic clove (1 )
- thyme (3 sprigs)
- Parmesan cheese (0.25 cup)
Instructions
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in pasta and return to a boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 10 minutes, or according to package directions.
- Meanwhile, add butter and oil to a deep skillet over high heat. Add onions, and cook and stir until they take on a little color. Add sugar, salt, pepper, vinegar, and water, and continue to cook on high heat, stirring constantly, until onions are very tender and dark brown, about 15 minutes.
- Turn heat down to low; add milk, garlic, thyme, and grated Parmesan. Blend the sauce until smooth with an immersion blender.
- Drain pasta, reserving a small amount of water to thin sauce if needed. Stir pasta into sauce.
