2 lb Spanish onions, sliced
2/3 c. Extra virgin olive oil
1/4 tsp Powdered saffron
1 tsp Ginger
1 tsp Black peppercorns, crushed
4 Tbsp. Cinnamon
2 Tbsp. Sugar
2 x Celery stalks

Directions

Arrange onions in layers in a large shallow bowl. Combine oil, saffron, ginger, pepper, half cinnamon & sugar. Pour over onions, add in just sufficient water to cover. Mix well & let marinate for 2 hrs. Place celery stalks crossways in the bottom of a tagine or possibly casserole. This protects the onions from scorching. Arrange onions in overlapping layers & pour over marinade.
Sprinkle with remaining cinnamon & sugar. Cover tagine & cook at 325F for 30 to 40 min & then uncover & brown under a broiler just before serving. The onions should be lsightly caramelized & very tender.
