A great dipping sauce or all purpose condiment from ” Season” by Nik Sharma. It will keep for up to a month in an airtight container in the fridge.
Ingredients
- 10 oz pearl onions
- 1 lb rhubarb stalks ends trimmed
- 1 3/4 oz mixed red and green Thai chiles halved lengthwise, and seeded if desired
- 6 fresh makrut lime or lemon leaves
- 1 tsp fine sea salt
- 2 cups extra virgin olive oil
Servings:
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 250°F [110°C].
- While the oven is heating, fill a medium saucepan with water and bring to a rolling boil. Fill a medium bowl with ice water. Using a paring knife, trim both ends of the pearl onions and plunge the onions into the boiling water for 30 seconds.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer to the ice water to stop the cooking. Drain and put the onions on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and dab dry. Using the paring knife, remove the skins and halve the onions lengthwise.
- Cut the rhubarb crosswise into 1 in [2.5 cm] pieces. In a medium bowl, combine the rhubarb, onions, chiles, makrut lime leaves, and salt. Add the olive oil and toss to combine.
- Transfer to a shallow baking dish and bake until the rhubarb chunks are tender and almost mushy, about 3 hours. Remove the dish from the oven and cool completely.
- Transfer the confit to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 1 month.
