Stuffed Onions: (Kremidolmades)
Recipe courtesy Cat Cora, FoodTV
4 medium yellow onions, unpeeled
2 oz. olive oil
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 c. cream
8 oz. Kasseri, grated, plus 4 oz. grated for garnish
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Slice the top off of the onions and a small part of the bottom so that it sits flat. Put onions on a baking sheet and drizzle each with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, and place in the oven. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until the onions are tender. Remove and let cool.
In a small saute pan over medium-high heat, reduce the cream until it coats the back of a spoon. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
Remove the skin from the onion and poke a small piece of the center out of the onion. Chop the small piece finely and add it into the cream. Fill the center of the onions with the 8 oz. of the Kasseri and place back in the oven to reheat for 5 minutes.
Remove the onions from the pan with a spatula and place on a serving plate. Reheat the cream slightly, about 1 minute and spoon over the onions. Top with the remaining Kasseri.
NOTE: Can use Parmesan cheese, if desired.
