Method

Sterilize enough wide-necked bottles in the oven so that they are ready to use. If using screw-top bottles with metal lids, fit with cut-out card discs to prevent the sauce coming in contact with the metal.
Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based saucepan. Add the onions and fry gently for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally
