  • About

Paprika and caraway provide a hint of Hungary. Those who want more can add some sour cream to top each portion.

Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons (75 g) unsalted butter
  • 4 small sweet onions, very thinly sliced

Method

In a tall narrow stockpot, melt 3 tablespoons (45 g) butter over medium heat. Stir in the onions and cook, stirring frequently, for 20 minutes. The onions should be very limp and just beginning to brown
