- 1 sprig of fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon of sea salt
- 2 tablespoons of butter or clarified butter ghee
- 1 teaspoon of brown sugar for caramelization
- Water as needed
- 1 large yellow onion thinly sliced
Step 1: Preparing Your Ingredients
Step 2: Heating Your Skillet
Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and then add in the butter. Let it melt completely, covering the base of the skillet with its rich, golden goodness.
Step 3: Adding the Onions
Step 4: Seasoning and Sweetening
Step 5: Cooking and Stirring
Now, let the magic happen. Cook the onions for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. If you notice them browning too quickly, lower the heat. You want them to turn a deep golden brown, not burn.
Step 6: Adding Water (If Needed)
Step 7: Finishing Touches
Step 8: Enjoying Your Creation
- Browning Matters: Aim for a rich golden color; that’s where the flavor resides.
- Keep Stirring: If the onions stick to the pan, a little water can help, but frequent stirring will prevent them from burning.
- Don’t Rush: Patience is key. Allow your onions to caramelize; turning the heat up too high can ruin them.
- Add More Flavor: Consider adding garlic during the last five minutes for a zesty kick.
- Storage Options: If you make extra, they store well in the fridge for about a week. Just reheat before serving.
