Caramelized Onions:
Note: The onions need to cook slowly, so the natural sugar in them can caramelize and develop that delicate sweet flavor. So be patient, and don’t increase the heat to make the onions brown more quickly.

1 T. margarine or butter
2 mediums onions, sliced

Melt margarine in 10-inch skillet over medium-low heat. Cook onions in margarine 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions are brown and caramelized; remove from heat.
