spring onion recipes please
16 Answers
I've just been given a load of spring onions, I do cook and have loads of recipes but have never made anything with spring onions.
Can anyone suggest anything?
All the recipes I've found call for just 1 or 2 onions, I've got 5 big bunches.
Thanks

Hi L - if epicurious is of interest, I'll give you a plug for:
http://www.astray.com/recipes
http://www.thefoody.com/recipes.html
http://www.gourmetsleuth.com
http://whfoods.org Worlds Healthiest Foods site with stacks of info and recipes (scroll down for link on left)
http://www.recipelink.com
and one of the other ones is http://www.recipezaar.com
You may have some of these already, but between the Astray site, Epicurious and the others that offer search by ingredient, I reckon they are some of the more useful one on the web. The BBC food site is pretty good, and Delia Online turns up the odd idea, but I find some of the info on those two soemtimes rather un-inspiring...
There are a couple of other UK site I use regularly for refreshing the brain with some suggestions about seasonal produce too, like Veg Box Recipes and the Seafish.org site is good too...
Ta for now, and bon appetit..!

Thanks ladies (apologies if you're not!)
...some great links there thank you, I'll take a look.
I have a passion for food and hundreds of books but I do tend to look online for recipes nowadays.
There looks to be some good vegetarian and fish recipes on there too - my daughter is a veggie so I'm always interested in new ideas. Thanks very much.
