Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 3 large Onion (*see Notes)
  • 3 Tablespoon Butter
  • ¼ Teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ Teaspoon Black Pepper
  • ½ Tablespoon Sugar (optional, brown sugar is great!)

Instruction

  • Peel your onions and cut them into half or quarters. Cut into not too thick and not too thin slices. All should be the same.
  • Heat up a pan and add your butter. Melt butter and stir in onion slices.
  • Keep over a medium heat setting and sauté onions until translucent.
  • Takedown the heat a notch and season with salt, black pepper, and if you want you can add sugar too. Stir mix.
  • When the onions start to get some color, take down the heat further to the minimum stove setting. Or else your onions will burn and won't caramelize.
  • Keep cooking it on slow heat for about 40 mins or until you are satisfied with the caramelization degree. Stir occasionally to prevent the onions from burning.
  • The onions will get sweeter over time and the quantity will reduce significantly. Decide if you want them to be light brown or darker brown. Take from the heat.
  • Use in your favorite food as a topping, in dinner meals, breads, dips etc.
