1. 1

   Peel the onions, cut them in half lengthwise, and then slice them thickly.

2. 2

   Heat a tablespoon of olive oil and a tablespoon of butter in each of two large non-stick pans, and divide the onions between them.

3. 3

   Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon of salt over each batch and cook the onions on medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown.

   This will take about 45 minutes.

   Add black pepper to taste.

   When the onions are lightly browned and much reduced in volume, consolidate them into one pan.
