Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

5 red onions, cut into 1/4 inch slices
3 -4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons fresh oregano, chopped
3 bay leaves
1/3 cup port wine
1 quart chicken stock
4 slices stale bread (I used a dark pumpernickel bread which was delicious)
1 cup jarlsberg cheese, grated

Steps:

Heat butter over medium heat in a pot wide enough to give the onions room to saute.
Add onions, oregano and bay leaves and saute for twenty minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the port wine and cook for 2 minutes, allowing alcohol to cook off.
Remove bay leaves.
Preheat broiler.
Add chicken stock and bring to a boil.
Pour soup into individual ovenproof bowls, placing a slice of bread on top of each bowl.
Divide the grated Jarlsberg among the bowls.
Place under the broiler for three to five minutes until cheese has melted and begins to brown -- watch it to make sure cheese does not burn.
Enjoy!

Tips:

Use a variety of onions: This will give your pie a more complex flavor. Try using a combination of yellow, white, and red onions.
Slice the onions thinly: This will help them cook evenly.
Cook the onions slowly: This will caramelize them and give them a sweet and savory flavor.
Use a good quality cheese: Jarlsberg is a great choice for this pie, but you can also use Gruyère, cheddar, or any other type of cheese that you like.
Add some herbs: Thyme is a classic herb to use with onions, but you can also use rosemary, sage, or any other herb that you like.
Don't overcook the pie: The onions should be soft and slightly caramelized, but they should still have a little bit of bite to them.

Conclusion:

Onion pie is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give this onion pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
