1
Melt the butter with the oil in a wide pan, add the sliced onions and half the salt, and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally.

Carry on cooking, scraping the sticky brown film off the base of the pan as it forms, until the onions are dark, jammy and reduced to about a quarter of their volume.
3
Stir in the vinegar to lift the last of the pan, then tip the onions onto a cold plate and leave them until they are no longer warm to the touch.
4
Beat the cream cheese and sour cream smooth, fold in the cooled onions, chives, the rest of the salt and the pepper, and chill for at least half an hour.
