Ingredients
- 1 kg White Onions very finely sliced
- 150 g Butter
- 2 ltrs Chicken Stock

- Gently fry the onions in the butter until they have softened and turned golden. Do not allow them to brown - it will make the soup bitter. This usually takes around 45 minutes on a very low heat
- Once the onions are soft and golden, add the stock and bring to the boil

- Place a slice of bread into each bowl, sprinkle liberally with the cheese and place under a pre-heated grill until the cheese has melted and serve immediately
