This is the sort of masochism I must tip my hat to, but am not willing to torture myself with.
I've been doing my own thing since 2002. Haven't looked back to a time of being owned by others.
My onions usually take about 25 minutes. I know because that's when the potatoes are done Yummmmmmmmm!! The big secret is plenty of oil.
