  1. Heat oil and butter in a pan over medium heat. When the butter has melted, add the onions to the pan and fry, turning occasionally, until they are light to golden brown and caramelized (approx. 35 minutes). Add the shallots and fry for about 15 minutes until the onions and shallots have a dark golden brown color.
