An easy, unique garnish to place atop the meat entree they can be made ahead of time.

Green Onions (Scallions), one per person

Cut the root end off a small green onion, place it on a cutting board.   Starting about one inch away from the green part, use a sharp knife and make several lengthwise cuts through the white part of the onion, making your cuts as close together as possible.   Cut off and discard the green stalk which will leave about a one inch uncut section of the white part of the onion above the cuts you just made.

Place a plastic twist around the uncut section of the onion to hold it together.  Place in ice water until ready to use.  The thin cuts of the white onion will flair out and curl up slightly, making an attractive garnish.

When ready to serve, remove the plastic twist and place on top of the meat and serve.
