Ingredients:

  • 4 large onions, thinly sliced
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 6 cups beef broth
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 baguette, sliced
  • 2 cups shredded GruyĆØre or Swiss cheese

Instructions:

  1. Caramelize the onions:
    In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt butter with olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and stir to coat them evenly.
  2. Add sugar:
    Sprinkle sugar over the onions to help with caramelization. Cook forĀ 25-30 minutes, stirring often, until onions are golden brown and caramelized.
  3. Add garlic and flour:
    Stir in minced garlic and cook forĀ 1 minuteĀ until fragrant. Sprinkle flour over the onions and stir well. Cook for anotherĀ 2 minutesĀ to remove the raw flour taste.
  4. Add liquids:
    Slowly pour in beef broth and white wine (if using), stirring constantly to combine. Bring to a boil.
  5. Simmer:
    Reduce heat and let the soup simmer forĀ 20-30 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  6. Prepare the bread:
    While the soup simmers, preheat your oven broiler. Place baguette slices on a baking sheet and toast under the broiler until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  7. Assemble and broil:
    Ladle hot soup into oven-safe bowls. Place a toasted baguette slice on top of each and sprinkle generously with shredded cheese. Place bowls under the broiler until cheese is melted and bubbly, aboutĀ 2-3 minutes.
  8. Serve:
    Carefully remove from oven and serve hot.

šŸ’” Notes:

āœ”ļø For deeper flavor, use yellow onions and let them caramelize slowly without rushing.
āœ”ļø GruyĆØre is traditional, but Swiss or mozzarella can be used.
