  • Step 1.

Heat the butter in a saucepan and add the onions. Cook over a medium heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden. Add the garlic and sugar and cook for a further 5 minutes.

  • Step 2.

Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute, then mix in the wine. Stir in the stock and season with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Stir in the Balsamic Vinegar and simmer gently for 2 minutes.

  • Step 3.

Preheat the grill to high. Lay the baguette slices on a baking sheet and toast until golden on one side. Turn them over and sprinkle on the cheese. Grill for 1-2 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with the cheesy baguette slices. Scatter with the parsley and drizzle with Balsamic, to serve.
