Ingredients needed 2 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- Using the cartouche method—pressing parchment directly onto the onions instead of a lid—allows excess steam to escape while retaining moisture, preventing burning and ensuring even caramelization.
- Caramelizing onions takes time, so make a large batch of the sauce, portion it, and freeze for up to 3–4 months for quick use.
- If authentic Parmigiano Reggiano is unavailable, store-bought grated Parmesan works just as well.
- The crispy breadcrumbs and subtle lemon aroma at the end balance the deep, heavy sweetness of the onions, making the dish clean and sophisticated.
Recommended for
- For those who want to turn an abundance of leftover onions into a restaurant-quality dish.
- For those who want a healthy, deeply flavored cream pasta using only vegetables and cheese, without any cream or milk.
- For those who appreciate the delicate gourmet harmony of crunchy topping and the fresh scent of lemon zest.
