Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp oil
1 tsp brown sugar
3 large onions, thinly sliced
1 tbsp flour
20 oz condensed beef consomme
20 oz water
2 tbsp medium sherry (optional)
2 tsp worcestershire sauce
8 slices baguette
1 tbsp whole grain mustard (optional)
1 cup gruyere cheese, shredded (or swiss)
salt & freshly ground black pepper
parsley

Directions:

Heat the butter and oil in a large pan. Add the onions and brown sugar. Simmer gently on medium low heat, stirring occasionally, for about twenty minutes, until the onions are translucent and golden.
