Roasted Spring Onions

This simple dish is a great side. If you roast them long enough, the lower half softens into a subtly flavored mush and the tops get crispy and salty. It’s a real treat. Two to three per person is enough.

I made this for Passover 2021 and it was an excellent and surprising side.
