Mexican


½ lb red onions (sliced into thick rings)
1 lime (juice)
dry oregano (to taste)
1 cup white vinegar
1 cup cold water
salt (to taste)

Place onions, oregano, and salt, into a medium bowl.
Add lime juice.
Mix together vinegar and water in a bowl and pour it into the bowl with onions.

Mix everything for one minute and adjust the salt to taste.
Let the onions marinate for 10-15 minutes and serve.

These Mexican pickled onions can be eaten straight away after being prepared, but if you want to enjoy their flavor 100% and bring out that marvelous bright color, I recommend that you let them marinate for at least 1 hour.
If you’re lucky enough to get Mexican oregano, use that one, because it definitely tastes different (and more delicious, in my opinion) and is perfect for this recipe.
You can prepare this recipe with any type of onions such as white, golden, red (purple), or even spring onions.
