Stuffed Onions

Ingredients

• 5-6 large onions
• 350 gr of minced meat beef
• 3 spoons of olive oil
• 3 spoons of rice
• 1 spoon of pine nuts
• 1 tomato
• 3 spoons of parsley
• A little cinnamon
• Orange zest (about 1/3 teaspoon)
• Salt Pepper
• -
• For the sauce:
• 1/3 glass of olive oil
• 2 tbsp of tomato paste
• 1 tsp of sugar
• salt pepper, mix them with 1 glass of water

Directions

1. For the filling, saute a finely chopped onion, add the minced meat, rice and the rest of the ingredients and cook slightly.
3. We clean the large onions and make a notch in each onion until we reach its center. Put the onions in boiling water and boil them for about 12 minutes until they soften. Drain and cool. Carefully remove each layer of the onion and gather them on a plate. As we move inward the stacks get smaller, so we can't fill them all.
4. It is easy to fill them because they form a curve. We take each leaf of the onion in our hand, place a teaspoon of filling and wrap. Arrange with the joint facing down in a pan fairly close to each other.
5. Pour over the sauce and bake at 170 degrees for about 40 minutes.
