## **Step 1: Make the Caramelized Onions**
Caramelized onions take time, but the deep, sweet flavor they add to the steak is worth every minute.
1. Heat **butter and olive oil** in a large pan over medium-low heat.
2. Add the **sliced onions** and stir to coat in the fat. Sprinkle with **salt** and sugar (if using).
3. Cook the onions slowly, stirring occasionally, for **30-40 minutes**. They will turn golden brown and develop a deep caramelized flavor.
4. If they start to dry out, add a splash of beef broth or water to keep them moist.
5. Once done, set aside and keep warm.

## **Step 2: Prepare the Mashed Potatoes**
While the onions are caramelizing, prepare the mashed potatoes.
1. Place **potato cubes** in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until fork-tender (about **15-20 minutes**).
2. Drain and return to the pot. Mash the potatoes with a masher or hand mixer.
3. In a small saucepan, heat **butter, heavy cream, and minced garlic** over low heat until the butter melts. Pour into the potatoes.
4. Season with **salt and pepper**, then mix until smooth and creamy. Adjust consistency with more cream or milk if needed.
5. Keep warm until serving.
