Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Heat oil in 6-8 quart wide heavy pot over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then brown meat well on all sides, about 10 minutes total. Transfer meat to a platter.

Cook onions with bay leaf in the fat remaining in pot over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until golden, 10-12 minutes.
5
Remove from heat and transfer half the onions to a bowl. Taste for salt and serve when it looks done.
