French Onion Soup Casserole
If anything, this does sound interesting. I will have to give this a try. I will have to research sweet onions here, all I have ever seen is a regulation yellow onion.

Servings 4 servings as a side
- 3 medium sweet onions, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 4 cups beef stock, fresh or from powder
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 loaf French bread, sliced 1/2 inch thick slices
- 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Melt butter in a pot over low heat, add onions and stir, cover and stir occasionally, cooking for about 30 minutes.
Add the broth and Worcestershire sauce and stir in and increase to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes and the broth will reduce a lot.
While the broth is reducing, preheat your oven to 180 C and grease a baking dish, I would say an 8x8 or 7x11, with butter. Lightly toast the French bread, you can do that while heating the oven.
Pour the onion mixture into the prepared baking dish. Add the toast slices to the top in an even layer and space them out about 1/2 inch apart.
Add the Mozzarella over the toast, then the Parmesan. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and nicely browned.
Let rest for a few minutes, serve as a side dish.
Cheese is the only costly items here. Figure about 90 Baht for the Mozzarella. For 4 servings, this is about 66 cents per serving.
