00:00When I first got this recipe, I didn't really know what to do with it.
00:03Casually Pepe sauteed onions. It's got to be like a side dish.
00:06On paper, it looks like just a big bowl of onions.
00:09Listen, I love onions. In fact, I used to make a snack a lot like this when I was little.
00:13Caramelized onions are an easy thing to make when you're a kid who's hungry and you want to pretend you're a grown-up.
00:17These are the adult version, though, with lots of black pepper and a sauce loaded with pecorino romano cheese.
00:22It gets creamy and smooth. This might technically be a side dish,
00:25but I plated mine up like a big bowl of pasta and have no regrets.
00:29I mean, the thing is, is it's actually really good.
00:33I want to eat the whole bowl.
00:36It's so good.
