Add the butter, red onion and minced garlic to a medium sized pot.

Simmer very slowly and reduce this mixture for another 20 minutes or more, until it reaches a jam-like consistency. Pay close attention to the jam, stirring often until practically all of the liquid boils off.
Serve warm or reheat a little at a tie in the microwave for a few seconds as needed.
This jam will last for several days in sealed container/s in the fridge or for much longer if you choose to make a large batch and follow proper canning/bottling procedures.
