Preparation

Step 1

In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and saute the onion till it's medium-brown. Mix the onion and all the other ingredients together in a large bowl. It will appear to be too "gloppy" with mayo, but once it has sat in the fridge awhile, it won't be. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour. Taste, and adjust amount of mayo, salt, and pepper if needed. Serves 3.
