Roasted Onions With Cheese

What do you think about the idea of roasted onions with cheese? Even if you, like me, belong to those who take onions out from your soup and avoid them in salads, you certainly won’t be able to remain indifferent to this unusual snack. My good friend shared this recipe with me and now not a single feast goes without this dish!

The fact is that roasted onions with cheese and herbs lose their spiciness and pungent smell, the dish becomes sweet and surprisingly fragrant, but remains crispy and juicy. A toasted golden cheese crust… What can I say about it? It’s divine! I think if you cook such a dish on the grill on an open fire, you’ll get a gorgeous picnic snack.

Like many people nowadays, I love to explore new places. My favorite type is slow travelling, when you can really blend in with locals and learn about new cultures and languages. But I think there are also perfect times for enjoying freshly baked pastry, a cup of fragrant coffee, and a good movie in the comfort of your own home. I guess I'm kind of a cultural omnivore, and I watch different types of movies, but the ones about art and food inspire me the most!
