- Ingredients
+ 1 medium onion
+ 1 Tbsp oil/fat
+ 1 Tbsp flour
+ 150 mL water
+ 1/8 tsp salt (or to taste)
- Instructions
+ Chop onions and place in pot with oil. I just chop them
into small pieces, but some people like to chop them
into rings instead. Do whatever you want (within limits).

+ Fry onions on medium heat for 35-45 minutes.
Do not be tempted to turn up the heat - it is necessary
to fry them very slowly in order for them to turn brown
properly instead of just burning. In fact, you may need
to turn down the heat a bit after a while.
You only need to stir occasionally, though, so this is
something that can be done while reading a book or doing
something else.

+ Boil/simmer on medium heat for 10-15 minutes or until it
has reached the desired thickness.
+ Optionally blend it with an immersion blender. I haven't
actually done this yet because I like the onion pieces,
but some people do it.
