Onion Souffle Recipes

Steps:

• Separate eggs; let stand at room temperature 30 minutes. Grease a 2-1/2-qt. souffle dish; dust lightly with 2 tablespoons cornmeal., Preheat oven to 350°. Place corn, milk and sugar in a blender; cover and process until smooth. Add cream and melted butter; cover and process 15-30 seconds longer., In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir 4-6 minutes or until tender. Stir in corn mixture, cream cheese, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper and remaining cornmeal until heated through. Remove to a large bowl., Whisk a small amount of hot mixture into egg yolks; return all to bowl, whisking constantly., In a large bowl, beat egg whites with baking soda and remaining salt on high speed until stiff but not dry. With a rubber spatula, gently stir a fourth of the egg whites into corn mixture. Fold in remaining egg whites. Transfer to prepared dish., Bake 45-50 minutes or until the top is deep golden brown and puffed and center appears set. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Roll the pastry out on a floured surface until almost large enough to line a 22cm loose-bottomed tart tin, sprinkle over about a third of the Parmesan, then continue rolling to push the cheese into the pastry. Line the tin with the pastry, leaving any excess overhanging. Line the tart with parchment paper and baking beans and bake blind for 20 mins. Gently remove the paper and beans and bake for a further 10 mins until pale golden and cooked.
• Spread the chutney in an even layer over the bottom of the pastry case, then set aside while you make the filling.
• To make the filling, melt the butter in a pan over a low heat, then add the flour and cook for 2 mins, stirring all the time. Gradually pour in the milk and continue stirring until you have a smooth, thick sauce. Cook for a further 2 mins, remove from the heat and cool for 3 mins.
• Crumble 200g of goat's cheese, the thyme and the rest of the Parmesan into the sauce. Beat until cheese melts, then add egg yolks one at a time, beating between each addition. Whisk egg whites to stiff peaks, stir 1 spoonful into the sauce and mix, then tip in the rest of the whites and gently fold until well combined.
• Spoon the filling on top of the onion chutney, crumble over the remaining goat's cheese, then transfer to the oven and bake for 25-30 mins, until golden and well risen. Allow the tart to cool slightly before trimming the edges and serving, or enjoy cold with a green salad, if you like.

Steps:

• Saute onions in cooking spray until limp and golden; cool slightly.
• In a blender combine sour cream and eggs until well mixed.
• Add the last six ingredients of the recipe; stir to mix well.
• Pour into a well-greased 1 1/2 quart casserole dish.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour, until the edges are slightly browned.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add chopped onions, and sauté 10-15 minutes or until tender.
• Place onions and bread cubes in a large bowl.
• Stir in milk, eggs, 1 cup of cheese, and salt.
• Pour into a lightly greased 1 1/2 quart soufflé or baking dish.
• Sprinkle with reamaining 1/4 cup cheese.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until set.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
• Serve as a dip with corn chips or a spread with crackers.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Butter four 1 1/4-cup soufflé dishes. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and leek; sauté 3 minutes. Mix in 1 1/4 cups whole milk and 1/2 teaspoon salt, then grits; bring to simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until thick, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk remaining 1/4 cup milk and yolks in small bowl to blend.
• Remove grits from heat. Stir in yolk mixture, then green onions and 3/4 cup cheese. Beat whites in medium bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold into grits in 3 additions. Divide mixture among prepared dishes (mixture will come all the way to top of dishes). Sprinkle with 1/4 cup cheese.
• Bake soufflés until puffed and brown on top, about 18 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix 50g butter and flour into a paste (known as beurre manié, see notes, below). Chill to firm for about 30 mins. Heat milk to boiling point with the onion, spices and bay leaf, then simmer gently for 5 mins. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Taste milk for flavour.
• Strain the milk into a large pan, pressing down on the onion to extract the maximum of flavour. Place the pan back on the heat and gradually whisk in the butter paste, adding in small pieces until you have a thick sauce.
• Season, then leave to cool for 3-4 mins. Whisk in egg yolks, grated gruyère and cheddar, plus two-thirds of the parmesan. Add the Worcestershire sauce and mustard. Check seasoning, leave to cool. Can be made 2 days ahead - bring to room temperature before continuing.
• Brush the insides of a soufflé dish (approx 20 x 8cm deep) with the remaining 25g butter, using upward brush strokes. Coat the base and sides evenly with some parmesan and freshly ground black pepper. Chill to set. Cut the gruyère slice into diamond shapes.
• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Coat a large, grease-free bowl with the lemon juice (see tip, below). Whisk the egg whites in the bowl, then whisk a third of them into the cheese mixture, to loosen. Carefully fold remaining egg whites into cheese mixture until well mixed, but still light.
• Spoon half the mixture into prepared dish. Dot with brie and top with remaining mixture. Gently level the top. Arrange gruyère on top, scatter with remaining parmesan. Bake for 10 mins. Reduce oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4, bake for 15-20 mins. The soufflé should be evenly risen and slightly wobbly. Serve immediately - the centre will be soft, but will thicken slightly when served.

Steps:

• Place all of the ingredients in a 1-qt casserole dish and mix very well. Bake in a 350°F oven for 20-25 minutes.
• Serve with tortilla chips but I much prefer a simple cracker or thinly sliced and toasted french bread.
