1 tablespoon of soft brown sugar

 

 

Method

 

1. Heat a large, heavy based saucepan and add the olive oil. Crush the garlic with a pinch of the sea salt and add to the pan, along with the onions and garlic. Sweat gently for around 20 minutes or until translucent, do not allow them to brown.

2.  Add the red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar and soft brown sugar. Simmer gently until nearly all the liquid has evaporated. This will take around 15 minutes.
