Onion Custard recipe

Source: The Canadian Cookbook - Mme. Jehane Benoit/1970

1/4 cup butter or margarine
6 medium onions, diced
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
Pinch of pepper
Pinch of nutmeg or curry powder

Melt butter or margarine in a saucepan and add onions. Stir until well coated with butter, then cook over medium heat until golden here and there.

Combine remaining ingredients. Add to onions and pour into a buttered 1-quart casserole. Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes at 275 degrees F or until set like a custard.

This is excellent with seafood, chicken, veal or turkey.
