Prepare the Onions:

Peel the onions and slice them thinly. The thinner the slices, the faster they will cook and caramelize.

Heat the Oil:

Place a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil or butter. Allow it to heat up until it’s shimmering but not smoking.

Cook the Onions:

Add the sliced onions to the skillet, spreading them out evenly.

Sprinkle a little salt over the onions to help draw out moisture and enhance their sweetness.

Stir the onions gently to coat them in the oil or butter.

Cover and Caramelize:

Reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid. This will trap steam and help the onions cook more evenly, preventing them from burning.

Let the onions cook for about 20-30 minutes, checking occasionally. If they start to stick, you can add a small splash of water or more oil to the pan.
