PYAZ KA LACCHA (RAW ONION RELISH)



Pyaz Ka Laccha (Raw Onion Relish) image

These floppy, lightly pickled onions are a traditional accompaniment to grilled and tandoor foods throughout India and the rest of South Asia. There are different versions depending on the region, but all are seasoned with salt, spiked with chile (either powdered or fresh) and brightened with some kind of acid, usually lemon juice or vinegar. This recipe, adapted from "Madhur Jaffrey's Indian Cooking" (Barron's, 1983), uses a combination of sweet paprika and cayenne for an earthy, nuanced flavor, and you can add the spices to taste, making this as fiery or mild as you like. Soaking the onion slices in water before mixing the relish helps soften their sharpness, but you can skip this step if you prefer a stronger onion flavor.

Time 55m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 medium onion, preferably a sweet onion, such as Vidalia, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, plus more to taste
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal), plus more to taste
1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika, plus more to taste
1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne, plus more to taste

Steps:

  • Put onions in a bowl and cover with cold water. Set aside to soak for 15 minutes. (This removes some of the onion's bite, but you can skip this step if you'd like a stronger onion flavor.)
  • Drain onions and thoroughly pat dry. Return onions to the bowl and stir in lemon juice, salt, paprika and cayenne. Let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to meld before serving. Taste and add more salt, lemon and spices, if you like.
  • Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Serve alongside grilled or roasted meats and fish; stuff into sandwiches, especially grilled cheese or tuna salad; use as a topping for pizza, burgers and hot dogs; scramble into eggs; toss into salads, especially starchy grain and potato salads.

ROASTED OKRA AND ONIONS



Roasted Okra and Onions image

Buy the freshest, firmest okra you can find. Pick pods that are no bigger than your ring finger. Slicing them lengthwise just before you roast them will keep slime to a minimum. This basic technique is very accommodating. You can add quartered yellow squash or zucchini, or even a chopped up fresh tomato. The trick is to roast the vegetables until the edges of the onion begin to turn brown.
