Preparation Steps
- In a mixing bowl, combine ground pork, rinsed rice, tomato paste, minced garlic, diced tomatoes, and your herbs and spices. Mix thoroughly.
- Trim both ends of each large yellow onion and slice them in half vertically without cutting through, creating a hinge.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and immerse the onion halves. Boil for about 15 minutes until soft but sturdy.
- Drain the onions and run them under cold water for a minute to stop cooking. Cool completely before peeling apart layers.
- Fill each layer of the onion with a tablespoon of the filling, encasing it completely, until all filling is used.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Arrange the stuffed onion halves upright in a round baking dish.
- In a saucepan, melt ghee or butter and mix with tomato paste and broth. Pour this sauce over the stuffed onions.
- Cover the dish tightly with parchment and foil, bake for 45 minutes, then remove covering and bake for an additional 15 minutes.

Notes
For extra flavor, prepare the stuffing a day in advance to let the spices meld. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
