Ingredients

  • 6 onions, small

  • 2 bay leaves

  • 8 peppercorns

  • 1 teaspoon ginger, peeled and microplane grated

  • 2 tablespoons sake

  • 1/2 teaspoon gochugaru (or red chilli flakes)

  • 1 tablespoon honey

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar

  • 2 tablespoons miso paste, lightly heaped

  • 1.5 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions

  • Chop off the top and bottom of the onions, and peel off the outside flaky layers.
  • Set up a double boiler with the bay leaves and peppercorns in the water, then place the onions upright and steam for 20-25 minutes until almost translucent and fully soft.
  • Preheat the oven to 190C fan-forced. When the onions are finished steaming, gently place them inside a baking dish.
  • Combine the ginger, sake, gochugaru, honey, brown sugar, miso, lemon juice, and 2 tbsp of warm water thoroughly, then pour over the onions, turning until fully coated.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, regularly basting with pan juices.
