Ingredients

2 tbsp butter

1 tbsp vegetable oil

5 large onions, thinly sliced

1 tsp sugar

1 tsp salt, plus a bit more to finish

2 tbsp all-purpose flour

6 cups vegetable broth (homemade or canned, I may include a recipe at a later time)

1/3 cup dry sherry

1 1/2 tsp fresh thyme, chopped, or 1/2 tsp dried

black pepper to taste

6 1/2 inch slices of french bread

6 slices of a white, melting cheese (I used swiss) or 2 1/2 cups grated cheese (Gruyere or Jarlsberg are pretty tradtional)

Directions

In a pot over medium heat, melt the butter and the oil.

Add the onions, sugar, and salt and cook for 1 minute while stirring.

Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions have carmelized, which should take anywhere from 20 - 40 minutes

Add the flour and cook while stirring for 1 minute

Add the broth, sherry, and thyme and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

Season to taste with the salt and pepper.

Preheat the broiler and broil the slices of bread until lightly toasted. Add butter to the bread if you'd like.

Put the soup in 6 ovenproof bowls and set them on a baking sheet.

Cover with the bread slices, which you may need to cut to fit.

Put the cheese on top of the bread slices.

Put the baking sheet under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Oh! I'm excited about this. You've reawakened a forgotten mission - I remember how disappointed I was when I found out FOS is made with beef stock. It's great to have a pre-approved vegetarian version to try.

Just made this tonight. The soup was just right! I used my own veg stock and made sure to give my onions enough time to carmelize. Only stupid thing I did was to leave it under the broiler too long. Partially charred my gruyere which should have been the best part!! I will definitely try this again though!!
