Stuffed Onions

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180º C.
2. Scoop out boiled onions to make a cavity and keep on a plate. Finely chop the scooped out portion and keep in a bowl.
3. To make white sauce, heat butter in a non-stick pan, add refined flour and saute on low heat for 2 minutes taking care that the flour does not get coloured. Add milk and cook, whisk continuously, to avoid lumps. Cook till the sauce thickens. Add salt and nutmeg powder and mix.
4. To make the filling, heat butter in another non-tick pan, add garlic, onion, red capsicum, green capsicum and yellow capsicum and toss well.
5. Add salt and black pepper powder and mix. Add the white sauce, and mix well. Add cream and 1 tbsp processed cheese and mix well. Take the pan off the heat and let it cool slightly.
6. Place the hollowed onions on a baking tray and stuff them with the filling. Top with the remaining grated processed cheese. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake till the cheese melts and becomes golden.
7. Bring the dish out of the oven, arrange the onions on a serving platter and serve hot.
