Egg Passengered Onions

Spatula Girl is busy with dinner, leaving Red Glove starving for a lunch she hasn't had. Her SuperTeeth started clacking away at each other, longing for a munchy.

But since Spatula Girl's dinner was to be a stewy concoction, it couldn't be rushed.

Red Glove decided to take matters into her own hands, and experiment with the 10 KG load of onions they had wisely purchased from an Asian Supermarket.

Thus was born, the "Egg Passengered Onions". (I couldn't decide between Noah's Onion, and Onion Boats, and I really wanted Egg to be in there somewhere)

Ingredients:
3 Eggs
3 Round Onions
Olive Oil
A tablespoon of Mayonnaise
Salt
Pepper
Dill
Fresh Parsley

Method:
1. Pop those eggs onto the stove to be hardboiled in a pot of tap water.
2. Start Peeling Your Onions.


3. Till they look like above. I left about 3 'leaves' on the onions.
4. Pop onions into an oven, drizzle with olive oil and salt. (I've been reading so many recipes and watching so much SuperFoodyTraining that the word 'drizzle' just came automatically. Have you ever said 'drizzle' in real life though?)
5. Chop up your parsley while waiting for the Eggs to HardBoil. That means you HAVE to boil the eggs. (Spatula Girl once thought that all she had to do was boil water, stop boiling water, place eggs in hot water, wait. So I thought it would be good information for the world)
6. Eggs done! Like in 5-10 mins? Peel.
7. Mash them up with all the ingredients. Like So:


8. Chill Egg Passengers.
9. Then later, when you touchy touchy the Onion Boats in the oven and they feel soft but firm (sounds naughty, no wonder I'm PG), take out.
10. Fill Boats with Egg Passengers.
11. Red Glove underestimated the amount of eggs she would need, so you guys use more kay.
12. Red Glove only had enough Egg Passengers for 5 boats. And since there were 9 boats, this kind of bad economy could ruin the shipping industry!
13. Therefore Red Glove decided to be multivegetable, and not discriminate.
14. She then filled the bottom of 3 boats with boiled carrots, and the bottom of 2 more with diced tomato (from a tin). She filled three other boats full of Egg Passengers, and laid a smattering more on the other 5.


15. If your math is good, you'll realise Red Glove retired the last boat, empty, into her stomach.
16. Decorate boats prettily with more parsley/carrots on top.
17. Lay a sauce on the side. Tabasco? Yum. But since Red Glove had none, she used her Tuai Yi's (Mom's Eldest Sister), patented home-made chilli sauce (which got past Aussie customs).
18. Eat.



Red Glove now going for SuperFoodyTraining.
