INGREDIENTS
4 large baked potatoes 4 tablespoons butter 4 onions, halved and thinly sliced 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme 1/2 cup sherry or dry white wine 1 cup beef stock 2 cups Gruyere cheese, grated Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter. Add onions and season with salt, pepper and thyme. Cook slowly until very soft and caramel coloured, stirring occasionally. Deglaze pan with sherry or wine, then add stock and bring to a low boil. Let cook until liquid is nearly gone, 5-10 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the top third off each potato and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl. Add half of the onion mixture to the potato flesh and stir to combine. Refill each potato shell and place on a baking sheet. Top with remaining onions and gruyere cheese. Bake until the cheese has melted. For more color, broil on high for 1 minute. Enjoy!
