Olive Oil
Onions, 6
Beef Stock 1 – 1/2 quarts

Instructions:
Peel and chop the onions lengthwise.
In a pan, heat up some olive oil, add the onions and cook until caramelized (brown) while stirring with a wood spatula.
Add the beef stock, thyme, salt, pepper and cook for 20 minutes.
Pour the soup in individual bowls, add some sliced bread (better if toasted) on the top and cover with grated swiss cheese.
