Stewed Summer Squash And Onions - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 summer squash (zucchini works but I prefer yellow)
1 large onion, diced
3 tablespoons butter
water
salt and pepper

Preparation

Slice squash as thinly as possible- I use a mandoline to do this quickly.
Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat.
Add squash and onions and season then cover with water.
Cook, stirring occasionally until water evaporates.
Can be eaten at this point, but I like to cook it until it is almost brown, you just have to stir very frequently because it will stick pretty bad. Cooking it a long time will caramelize the vegetables and it becomes a sweet side dish. Warning- it isn't pretty, but it is tasty!
Make this into a main dish by adding chunks of ham during cooking. Also delicious!
