Roasted Sweet Onions
Source: Julia Child
"... a very simple one [recipe] that I use a great deal, which is just roasting a whole onion.
I pierce it [a whole sweet onion] in five or six places with a knife and then put it as is either in a 450 degree oven or for 5 or 6 minutes or so at high in the microwave. Then when it's done, cut it in half or open it up and sprinkle it with grated cheese and olive oil or just plain butter, salt and pepper.
It's such an easy way to do them and they're so delicious."
