Directions
- Melt the butter and oil in a large saucepan over medium. Add the onions and cook until dark and lightly caramelized, about 40 minutes. Add the wine and cook until slightly reduced, 2 minutes. Add the beef stock, bay leaves, and thyme and bring to a simmer. Cook, uncovered, for about 1 hour. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat the oven to broil. Divide the soup among bowls. Top each with a couple of slices of bread and cheese. Cook until golden and bubbling, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately.
