White Beans With Onion Confit image

This is from Food & Wine Feb 2010. I haven't tried this yet but it looks like a great appetizer or side dish. I would serve this with crusty french bread. They suggest pairing this dish with a citrusy Alabarino: 2008 Santiago Ruiz.

Time 45m

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup plus 2 tbl extra virgin olive oil
2 large onions, thinly sliced
10 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon rosemary, chopped
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons flat leaf parsley, chopped
1 cup water
1/4 cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil until shimmering. Add the onions, garlic, rosemary and crushed red pepper and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until just softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Uncover and cook over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very soft and lightly caramelized, about 15 minutes longer.
  • Stir in the beans, parsley and water and simmer until stewy, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the cheese and season with salt and pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.
