Step-by-Step

1. Peel the Onion

   • Remove the outer skin, leaving the root intact if you want it to hold together.

2. Cut or Leave Whole

   • For quicker cooking: slice or chop.

   • Whole onion: cook longer and pierce the skin in several places to let steam escape.

3. Place in Microwave-Safe Dish

   • Add a splash of water or cover loosely with a microwave-safe lid or plate to trap steam.

4. Microwave

   • 2–5 minutes depending on size and cut:

     • Sliced: ~2 minutes

     • Whole medium onion: 4–5 minutes

   • Check halfway and stir if sliced.

5. Done!

   • Onion should be soft and slightly caramelized.

   • Use immediately in recipes or as a quick side dish.
