Steps:
- Heat the oil in large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, just until softened, about 2 minutes. Add 3/4 cup of the water and cook, stirring occasionally, until the water evaporates, 5-6 minutes.
- Add the carrots, sugar and thyme; reduce the heat and cook until the onions are golden, about 6 minutes. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of water, salt and pepper; cook until the vegetables are crisp-tender, about 3 minutes.
- If making ahead, let cool; freeze in an airtight container up to 1 month. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Cook in a skillet with 1/3 cup water until hot and the water evaporates.

Steps:
- Over medium heat, heat skillet before placing in butter and oil.
- Add onion, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and sugar.
- Cook uncovered over medium heat, moving the onions around, until onions begin to get browned; approx.
- 8-10 minutes.
- Cover and reduce heat to medium-low and cook for an additional 13-15 minutes.
- The onions will sweat down and be glossy and soft.
- *(At this point for visual affects, I add 1/2 tsp. Gravy Master or Kitchen Bouquet) to give it a rich brown color.
- Can be made in advance; freezes very well for the next Sunday roastbeef dinner.
- Serve with hamburgers, roasts or steaks.
