📝 Preparation Steps
1
Add the butter and oil to the liner of a 6- or 8-quart Instant Pot and set to SAUTE. Once the butter is melted, add the onions, garlic, and sugar. Stir well to coat the onions. Cover the Instant Pot with the lid and lock into place. Seal the steam release handle. Select HIGH PRESSURE and set the timer for ⏱️ 5 minutes. When the timer is up, manually release the pressure (unseal the steam release handle). Unlock and remove the lid, being careful of any remaining steam.

Add the thyme sprigs. Set to SAUTE and cook ⏱️ 18-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onion broth is light golden in color.(You don’t want the onions to get too mushy.) Combine the flour and wine in a small bowl. Add wine mixture and cook for ⏱️ 1-2 minutes. Stir in the broth, Worchestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and bay leaf.
