• olive oil
• 2 medium onions, peeled and sliced thinly (8-10 ounces)
• 1 1/2 cups water or broth (chicken, beef, or veggie–see notes)
• 1-2 tablespoons butter
• Salt and freshly ground pepper

Instructions

1. Pre-heat a medium to large size skillet over medium heat on stove. The heavier the skillet, the better. Add oil, then onions, stirring frequently, especially during the beginning and the end, until they caramelize and turn brown. This may take between 30-45 minutes and can be done ahead of time. The onions should have cooked down to approximately 1/2 cup. Place onions into a blender.
2. Add water or broth of your choice to same skillet you used for onions. Boil until all brown bits have dissolved into the water or broth. Add water or broth to blender containing onions saving back about a fourth cup.
3. Starting at a slow speed and progressing to high, blend until smooth. Open blender and clean sides with a spatula. Add butter for smoothness. Keep blending. Add more liquid if gravy is too thick for your tastes. If you decide to add herbs, sour cream, or yogurt, do it last and blend just until smooth.
4. Add salt and pepper to taste. (Sorry I can't give you an exact measurement. It depends on the broth you are using.)
