Spooky Caramelised Onion Dip
Ingredients
- 1 Red Onion (small)
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 tsp Red Wine Vinegar

- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 tsp Dried Onion Granules

Instructions
- Slowly cook the red onion on a low heat for at least 15 minutes to let it caramelise. The longer the better! Add the red wine vinegar for the last minute.
- Drain most of the water from the cannellini beans and pop in a blender.
- Crush in the garlic, and add the onion granules and cooked onion mixture including all the oil and vinegar.
- Blend up and season to taste. You may want to add a little more vinegar or olive oil at this point.
- Use a silicone spatula to put the dip mixture into a small bowl.
- Add spiders to taste!
Notes
- Stores in the fridge for three days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
