Ingredients:

Serving

5 tbsp olive oil
3 lbs red onions, sliced
1 pinch dried thyme
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 cup red wine
4 1/2 cups beef stock
6 slices sourdough bread
1 garlic clove, lightly crushed but left whole
4 tbsp gruyere, grated

Directions:

Heat 3 tbsp of the oil in a large pan and add the onions, thyme and some salt. Cook over a very, very low heat for about 45 minutes, until pale golden, soft and sweet. Set aside 6 tbsp of the onions, then add the wine to the remaining onions in the pan, scraping any caramelized bits from the base of the pan with a spatula. Add the stock and bring to simmering point. Taste, season, and set aside.
Preheat the oven to 375°F
Rub each slice of bread with the garlic, brush with the remaining oil and cut in half. Put 6 pieces of bread in a baking dish. Distribute half the reserved onions over the bread, then put 1 tsp cheese on each.
Put another piece of bread on top and repeat, to create a layered crouton. Bake for about 15 minutes, until golden and bubbling. Put a crouton in each of 6 serving bowls. Bring the soup back to boiling point, ladle over the croutons and serve.
