Time 14h25m

Yield 16 wedges

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 whole heads garlic
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup canola oil
4 cups finely chopped red onions (about 5 medium)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
12 large flour tortillas
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Prepare the roasted garlic: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Cut the top 1/2 inch off the garlic heads and discard. Place the heads on a large piece of foil and drizzle with the olive oil. Wrap up foil tightly; place the package in a small baking dish. Roast until the garlic is soft and lightly browned, 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the tortilla cake: Combine the canola oil and onions in a large saute pan over medium heat. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring (don't over brown). Add the butter and sugar; cook, stirring to caramelize. Remove from the heat and let cool.
  • Once cooled, mix the onions with the parmesan, mayonnaise and cilantro in a bowl. Squeeze the roasted garlic out of their skins and stir into the onion mixture. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Set aside 1/3 of the onion mixture in the refrigerator for the dipping sauce. Spread 2 tablespoons of the remaining mixture on top of a tortilla and cover with another tortilla. Repeat, spreading and stacking the tortillas; finish with a tortilla with no mixture on top. Wrap the tortilla stack in plastic wrap and let set up for 12 to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
  • After the stack has set up, cut into 16 wedges. Preheat a grill or grill pan; warm wedges over medium heat until both sides are marked. Combine the reserved onion mixture with the balsamic vinegar to make the dipping sauce.

I'm not a huge fan of garlic and onion, but this recipe was still really good. The flavors were well-balanced and the cake was moist and fluffy.
