Best Camembert Caramelized Onion Quesadilla With Apple Chutney Recipes

CAMEMBERT AND APPLE CHUTNEY CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine the apple, shallots, raisins, vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Let sit for 10 minutes.
• To assemble: Heat the mountain bread, one at a time, directly over a gas flame or grill, or in a hot skillet, turning frequently, just until pliable, about 5 to 15 seconds each. Scatter 3 pieces of cheese in the center of a round of mountain bread. Top with a quarter of the apple chutney. Fold in the two sides and roll. Complete the wraps with the remaining ingredients. Or, if you prefer, prepare them all at once, assembly-line style.
• To cook: Lightly oil a baking sheet and heat in the oven for 5 minutes. Carefully add the wraps, seam side down, and bake until crisp on one side, then turn and bake until the second side is crisp, about 10 minutes total. Remove from the oven and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Serve hot or warm, cut in half on the bias with a serrated knife.

CARAMELIZED ONION QUESADILLAS

Steps:

• Caramelized Onions: heat the olive oil in a large skillet and add the onion. Cook for 10 minutes or until tender. Add the vinegar and sugar. Cook for 3 minutes or until sugar is dissolved and the mixture is light brown. Remove from the heat.
• Place 3 tortillas on a baking sheet. Cover each tortilla with fontina cheese, caramelized onion and goat cheese. Top each with a second tortilla. Brush the tops with olive oil.
• Bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat until all ingredients are used.
• Cut each quesadilla into 4 wedges.
• Serve hot.

CARAMELIZED ONION AND APPLE CHUTNEY

Steps:

• In a 12-inch (or larger) skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the oil, and when hot, add the onions to the skillet, along with a pinch or two of kosher salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, stirring often, for about 10 minutes, then lower the heat to medium and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions turn a rich golden brown, or about another 30 to 40 minutes. Do not rush this process as you do not want any onions to burn or dry out.
• Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the vinegar, brown sugar, mustard, celery or caraway seed (if using), and pure maple syrup along with more salt and pepper; set aside.
• When the onions are ready, raise the heat to medium-high again and add the apples. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes, or until the apples just begin to soften. Add the vinegar mixture and deglaze the pan by scraping the bottom. If you're using a nonstick skillet, there will be nothing to deglaze. Stir in the raisins (if using) and cover the skillet, lower the heat to medium-low, and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the apples are soft. Remove the lid and raise the heat back to medium-high. Cook the mixture, stirring often, until the liquid in the pan thickens enough that you can drag a spoon across the bottom and the liquid flows slowly back in, or is syrupy. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
• This stuff is delicious and goes well with grilled or roasted pork.

APPLE CHUTNEY

Reduce the heat to simmer and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for 50 minutes to 1 hour, until most of the liquid has evaporated. Take off the heat and add the raisins.
• Set aside to cool and store covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
