Scale

- 1 large onion, sliced
- 150g bacon or lardons, or smoked mushrooms for a vegetarian option

Instructions
- Boil water in a large pot. Add a pinch of salt and toss in the crozets. Cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 10-12 minutes.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon or lardons and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the sliced onions and cook until golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.
