Preparation

Step 1

Melt butter over medium heat and saute onions with sugar and salt and pepper to taste. Cook onions until soft, about 5 minutes. Add sherry, increase heat and cook 2 to 3 minutes more. Add dash of nutmeg and set aside.

Make packaged au jus gravy according to package directions.

Slice French baguette into sandwich-size slices. Brush halves with garlic oil and broil until toasted. Layer sandwiches accordingly: baguette bottom, roast beef dipped in gravy, onions, slices of provolone or Mozzarella cheese and baguette top. Serve remaining gravy on the side for dipping. Add a big salad or soup for a quick, delicious dinner.
