I came last in the Cup

Well, one of my office sweepstake horses did. And that means I have won a pile of (chocolate) gold coins - which, I must admit, is more my style of winnigns than any serious gambling.

It's been a while since I've posted a recipe, so in honour of the event, here's what I brought along for the celebration.

Caramellised Onions and Chorizo Puffs

Brown onions (about 3)
Sugar (whatever sort is in the cupboard)
Vinegar (I use red wine vinegar)
Olive oil
Puff pastry (frozen from the shops - there's no way I'm crazy enough to make this from scratch)
Chorizo sausage

Method: Chop up the onions in a fairly rough-ish dice. Cook them over a very low heat, with a good splash of vinegar, couple of tablespoons of sugar, and a large dash of olive oil. Stir occasionally, and keep cooking until they are well beyond translucent, though not burnt. Let onions cool, while preheating oven to 180 degrees. Cut out 5cm diameter circles of pastry (*** with a fork), then place on each circle a tablespoon of onionand two thin-ish slices of chorizo. Bake for 15 minutes or unitl golden brown, serve warm.
