Directions

  1. In a large stock pot over medium heat, add olive oil and butter. Add in sliced onions and lightly salt.
  2. Cut a circular piece of parchment paper, the same size as your pan and place over onions, tucking in the sides (this allows the onions to cook evenly and is called a cartouche).
  3. After cooking for roughly 20 minutes or until the onions are golden, add beef broth, water, thyme, parmesan, and more salt. Let simmer for 25 minutes.
  4. While soup is cooking, preheat oven on to 400°F. Place 4 pieces of bread on a sheet pan, and top bread with a piece of Swiss cheese. Bake for 5-7 minutes.
  5. Once bread is toasted and cheese is melted, ladle soup into a bowl, top with cheesy bread, and enjoy.
