FRIED APPLES'N'ONIONS (LITTLE HOUSE)



Fried Apples'n'onions (Little House) image

This is a traditional "country" dish. Sugar is optional, but I think it's better with it. Try this for breakfast with fried potatoes. This recipe came from "The Little House Cookbook" by Barbara M Walker, and the food featured in "Farm Boy."

Categories     Breakfast

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 lb sliced bacon or 1/2 lb salt pork
6 yellow onions (2 pounds)
6 tart apples (2 pounds)
2 tablespoons brown sugar

Steps:

  • Fry bacon or salt pork slices in a skillet until brown and crisp. Set them aside on a warm serving platter.
  • While the meat is frying, peel the onions and slice them as thinly as possible.
  • Core the apples and cut them crosswise in circles about 1/4 inches thick. Apple skins help the slices keep their shape and add color to the dish, so don't peel unless the skins are tough or scarred.
  • Drain all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the skillet, then add the onion slices. Cook them over medium high heat for about 3 minutes.
  • Cover with apple slices in an even layer. Sprinkle brown sugar over all, cover the skillet, and cook until tender, a few minutes more. Stir only to prevent scorching.
  • Remove to the warm plate with the bacon or salt pork slices and serve.

6 medium onions, sliced and separated into rings
2 tablespoons butter
6 medium tart red apples, cut into 1/4-inch wedges
3 tablespoons brown sugar

Nutrition Facts : Calories 151 calories, Fat 3g fat (2g saturated fat), Cholesterol 8mg cholesterol, Sodium 35mg sodium, Carbohydrate 31g carbohydrate (24g sugars, Fiber 5g fiber), Protein 2g protein.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples. For this recipe, you'll want to use a firm, tart apple that will hold its shape when cooked. Some good options include Granny Smith, Braeburn, and Honeycrisp.
  • Slice the apples and onions thinly. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you add too many apples and onions to the pan at once, they won't cook evenly. Cook them in batches if necessary.
  • Be patient. It takes a little time for the apples and onions to caramelize. Don't rush the process or they will burn.
  • Season to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a little bit of vinegar or lemon juice to brighten up the flavors.
