Fresh Onion Dip 

With an extra 1/2 onion left behind from making Rice & Beans, Belezian Style, plus a few other ingredients, I made some fresh onion dip.


INGREDIENTS
4 oz chopped onion (red onion used here)
1Tbsp cornstarch
4 oz shredded cheese (Cheddar & Monterey Jack blend used here)
4 oz. broth (beef broth used here)
Note: Have more onion? Just multiply quantities accordingly.

METHOD
(Microwave or stove top options)

Combine ingredients:
Put chopped onions into microwave-safe bowl.
Add cornstarch. Mix to coat onions in cornstarch.
Add cheese and stir to distribute evenly.
Pour broth into mixture and stir.

Heat in microwave: 
Heat mixture in microwave for 5 minutes and stir.
Heat for 5 minutes and stir 2 more times.
Cool for at least 5 minutes.
Serve & enjoy.

OR

Heat stove top:
Transfer mixture into saucepan.
Heat stove top on medium heat for 20 - 25 minutes, stirring regularly.
When dip reaches desired consistency, remove from heat.
Cool for at least 5 minutes.
Serve & enjoy.

Note: Make this ahead and keep in the fridge for later. Just cool for about 30 minutes before storing in the fridge.
