Ingredients
2 teaspoons canola oil
1 red onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 small carrots, peeled, cut into 1/4-inch dice

Step 1
Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the wine, and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl, and set aside to cool.
