4 pcs of baguettes (sliced)
2 Tbsps butter (unsalted)
4 c onions; sliced
1 cans broth (beef, 10 1/4 oz cans)
1.5 c of water (tap or mineral)

1/8 Tbsp thyme, dried and crumbled
1/4 c grated cheese (Parmesan)
1 c grated cheese (Swiss)

Instructions:

Put bread on pre-heated broiler til golden brown (one minute each side would do).

Using a heavy saucepan on low temperature, melt the butter then add sliced onions then cook for about thirty minutes, occasionally stirring.

Pour in beef broth, water, bay leaf, pepper and thyme and increase temperature to bring soup to rolling boil. Lower heat then simmer. Put in port then cover with lid then simmer another five minutes.

Pour soup in oven-proof containers (bowls). Scatter pieces of grated cheese on top of soup then add grated parmesan. Put in broiler til cheese is melted and browned (in about one minute) then serve while still hot.
