Raw Onion Relish Food

PYAZ KA LACCHA (RAW ONION RELISH)

Steps:

• Put onions in a bowl and cover with cold water. Set aside to soak for 15 minutes. (This removes some of the onion's bite, but you can skip this step if you'd like a stronger onion flavor.)
• Drain onions and thoroughly pat dry. Return onions to the bowl and stir in lemon juice, salt, paprika and cayenne. Let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to meld before serving. Taste and add more salt, lemon and spices, if you like.
• Use immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Serve alongside grilled or roasted meats and fish; stuff into sandwiches, especially grilled cheese or tuna salad; use as a topping for pizza, burgers and hot dogs; scramble into eggs; toss into salads, especially starchy grain and potato salads.
