3. [1:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFd-4ui43B0&t=91s) Add the sliced onions and sauté them on medium heat until golden brown, then add a splash of hot water to help brown them evenly.

7. [3:27](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFd-4ui43B0&t=207s) Remove from heat, let the mixture cool, and blend into a fine paste with a little water.
