  1. LET’S START THE SOUP

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the onion until caramelised, 8-10 minutes (shifting occasionally). Mix through the flour and garlic and cook out, 2-3 minutes (shifting constantly). Pour in the wine and simmer until almost evaporated, 2-3 minutes. Mix in the stock, 400ml [800ml]|#7DA0D7 of water, the thyme (to taste), and the worcestershire sauce. Simmer until reduced and thickened slightly, 10-15 [15-20]|#7DA0D7 minutes (stirring occasionally). Mix through a sweetener (to taste) and lightly season. Top with ½ the cheese, cover and set aside to melt.

  2. OH CRUMBS!

    Place the breadcrumbs in a pan over medium-high heat and dry toast until starting to brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. CHEESY BREAD

    Spread the bread slices out on a roasting tray and drizzle with oil. Place into the oven until toasted, 4-5 minutes. Just before serving, top the slices evenly with the remaining cheese and return to the oven until the cheese is melted, 3-5 minutes.

  4. O LA LA, CHEF!

    Dish up the sumptuous French onion soup and top with the golden breadcrumbs. Serve the cheesy bread on the side for dunking. Enjoy, Chef!
