I mean the one you do when you want something easy to do, but not when you’re tired at the point you microwave a frozen-meal, or just cut down a piece of cheese and put it in a bread

    Laziness, for me at least, is about effort more than time - caramelizing onions (once you’re familiar with the process) can be done on autopilot in fifteen minutes or less. But for the above recipe, five minutes should be plenty.

      But true caramelization on onions is still like 45-60 minutes of constant attention. It’s not difficult, but it does require a lot of time and effort. You’re not getting a caramelization in 15 minutes without a pressure cooker and even then they taste like nothing so what’s the point?
