There is browning and there is caramelisation.



They get brown within 10 minutes. I never cared about caramelization, but onions can change color rather fast.


If we just want them to change color we can do that a whole lot faster than 10 minutes. But you wouldn't like the taste. :)


Sure but they get brown in a tasty way in ten minutes.


Browning, unless we're talking about burning onions, is caramelisation. Just a small amount.

No, its not. Heck, even “caramelizing” onions mostly isn’t caramelization, its Maillard-reaction browning combined with slower cooking so that the cooking is more complete, retaining less of the firm texture.
