Preparation

Step 1

Stir-fry onions and butter in a large saucepan over low heat until pale golden, 10-15 minutes. Add broth & pepper. Cover and simmer 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions are very tender.
Preheat oven to 400. Toast bread: ladle soup in ovenproof bowl & float toast on top. Top with cheese and bake for 5-7 minutes until cheese is lightly browned and bread is puffed. Serves 4
