Recipe

Remove the root end of the onion and slice it as thinly as possible to reduce caramelization time.
Heat a wok and add 20g of butter, allowing it to melt completely.
Once the butter has melted, add all the sliced onions and begin frying over high heat, as they contain a lot of moisture initially.
Continue cooking over high heat until the onions lose their freshness, turn brown, and most of the moisture has evaporated.
When the onions develop a deep brown hue and have very little moisture left, reduce the heat to medium to prevent burning.
Keep stirring continuously and cook until the onions reach a rich, dark caramel color throughout.
Once the desired color is achieved, pour in 600ml of water and bring to a gentle boil.
As the water begins to bubble, gradually add the prepared curry powder, stirring constantly to prevent clumping.
Once the curry is well blended and the consistency is just right, turn off the heat, transfer to serving bowls, and finish by topping with grilled sausage and plain yogurt.

Slice the onion thinly and prepare the wok with melted butter.
Adjust heat between high and medium, cooking the onions slowly until they turn a deep brown color.
Add water and curry powder, stirring to avoid lumps, then top with your preferred garnishes to finish.

Cooking tips

Slicing the onions thinly helps shorten cooking time and ensures even caramelization.
In the final stage, when most moisture has evaporated, the onions can burn easily—keep stirring over medium or lower heat.
If butter is unavailable, you can substitute with regular cooking oil without affecting the result.
