Instruction

  • Place onion slices and oil into large saucepan over medium-low heat. Flip a few times to coat the onions. Allow to cook, uncovered, flipping occasionally, until onions are lightly browned and caramelized, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Remove half of the onions from saucepan and transfer to a dish. Add remaining ingredients to saucepan and stir to incorporate. Raise heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. Lower heat and allow to simmer for 10 minutes, adding a bit more water if mixture becomes too thick.
  • Ladle into bowls and top with reserved onions. Serve.
