Onion Gratin

• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 1 1/2 pounds pearl or spring onions, trimmed
• Butter for the dish
• A small grating of nutmeg
• 1 cup heavy cream

1. Bring a pot of water to a boil and add salt.
2. Preheat the oven to 400F.
3. Drop the onions into the water and leave them there for a minute.
4. Peel them, then put them in a buttered ovenproof dish large enough to hold them in one layer.
5. Sprinkle them with salt, pepper, and a little nutmeg, then pour the cream over all.
6. Bake until the top is brown and the onions are soft, about 30 minutes.
