2 yellow onions, diced
2 carrots, diced
2 celery ribs, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced

Affordable Dutch Oven from Tramontina

You can certainly spend $300 on an equivalent Le Creuset, but the above Tramontina pot was only $50 and served me well for 6 years now.  The bottom of the pot did discolor (as you can see in the video) and became black, but that didn't change the pot's performance in any way.
