Warm Caramelized Potatoes

My sister Julie makes this and it's amazing. I love the balsamic and sweet combination. Goes great with pork or chicken dishes, but can totally be eaten on its own it's that good!

2 lbs small red potatoes cut into 1 inch pieces

1/2 tsp salt

1 lb asparagus cut into 2 inch pieces

1/2 cup butter

1 large onion chopped

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 tsp salt

freshly ground pepper

Boil potatoes with 1/2 tsp salt until tender. Drain and set aside.

Boil asparagus until crisp-tender. Drain and set aside. Combine both in serving dish.

While vegetables are cooking, melt butter in skillet. Cook onion in butter till softened about 5 minutes and until golden brown. Stir in vinegar, brown sugar and 1/4 tsp salt. Pour over asparagus and potatoes. Stir until coated. Sprinkle with pepper.
