In the video, we see a person's hands as they chop a red onion on a green cutting board. The person is using a knife to cut the onion into thin slices. The background shows a kitchen counter with other ingredients and utensils. The person's hands are steady, and they seem to be experienced in cutting the onion. The red onion has a shiny, purple skin and white flesh. The knife is silver and appears to be sharp, as it cuts through the onion with ease. The green cutting board provides a contrast to the red onion, making it easy to see the slices as they are being cut.
