- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp pomegranate molasses
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Heat Oil: Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat to prepare for cooking the onions.
- Cook Onions: Add the thinly sliced onions to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they become soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add Flavorings: Stir in the pomegranate molasses, salt, and black pepper evenly to coat the onions.
- Simmer: Reduce the heat to low and let the onions simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are deeply caramelized, glossy, and infused with the molasses flavor.
Notes
