Since we got back I couldn't wait to get into the kitchen and try some new recipes. And what better place to start than with a recipe request from my friend Sue. A little while ago she had asked if I knew a good recipe for a red onion marmalade. I started looking around and found a great one that I think will hit the spot nicely - I made a batch yesterday and had some on my cheese sandwich for lunch today. For me, it has the perfect balance of tangy and sweet without loosing the taste of the red onions and even Mr Happy Larder - who normally isn't too fond of sweet savoury things - loved it. Usually I find that chutneys and the like get better as they mature but you can have this one immediately and it is still very, very tasty. Simple ingredients, easy method and quick preparation with a yummy result - what's not to like? :-)
