This is the best recipe I've ever managed to create for onion gravy. Easy to make, full of flavour and delicious with sausages or toad-in-the-hole.

- 2 large red or white onions, peeled and thinly sliced

- Melt the butter in a large pan, one that has a lid. Add onions and garlic. Cover and sweat the onions and garlic for around 20 minutes, until well softened and slightly caremelised. Season with salt and pepper, and the dried thyme.
- Turn the heat up, add the balsamic vinegar, and cook until well reduced.
- Add the hot beef stock, bring to the boil then reduce the heat, and simmer for as long as you like - it will keep over a low simmer until you need it.
- Check and adjust seasoning, and serve in a warm jug.
Tip
You could also add some finely chopped rosemary in moderation, or use fresh thyme - it's up to you.
