FRIED APPLES'N'ONIONS (LITTLE HOUSE)



Fried Apples'n'onions (Little House) image

This is a traditional "country" dish. Sugar is optional, but I think it's better with it. Try this for breakfast with fried potatoes. This recipe came from "The Little House Cookbook" by Barbara M Walker, and the food featured in "Farm Boy."

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 lb sliced bacon or 1/2 lb salt pork
6 yellow onions (2 pounds)
6 tart apples (2 pounds)
2 tablespoons brown sugar

Steps:

  • Fry bacon or salt pork slices in a skillet until brown and crisp. Set them aside on a warm serving platter.
  • While the meat is frying, peel the onions and slice them as thinly as possible.
  • Core the apples and cut them crosswise in circles about 1/4 inches thick. Apple skins help the slices keep their shape and add color to the dish, so don't peel unless the skins are tough or scarred.
  • Drain all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the skillet, then add the onion slices. Cook them over medium high heat for about 3 minutes.
  • Cover with apple slices in an even layer. Sprinkle brown sugar over all, cover the skillet, and cook until tender, a few minutes more. Stir only to prevent scorching.
  • Remove to the warm plate with the bacon or salt pork slices and serve.

Traditional savory dish, great with roast pork or pork chops. Chilled with some added bacon bits, it makes a great summer BBQ salad.

SAUTEED APPLES AND ONIONS



Sauteed Apples and Onions image

This was once a pioneer favorite. Yes, it sounds weird, but it's delicious. You'll want to have something to go with this that has some protein, like a garden burger or a brown rice packet, both of which you can microwave. Apples and onions only takes about 10 minutes, a few dollars and it's delicious as a topping for rice or even by itself for a light snack.
