Question
Is it permissible and how can one leave a raw cut onion overnight?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
It is forbidden to eat raw onion that was peeled and left without a root overnight.
If the onion has some peel or root attached, it is permitted.
If the onion was mixed with food or seasoning overnight, it is permitted.
Source
Niddah 17.
There are five things that if done, a person endangers himself, and his blood is on his head: eating peeled garlic and peeled onion, etc., that have been left overnight.
