French Onion Soup

Golden onions simmered in beef stock with herbs and a splash of port, then topped with bread and Gruyère and grilled until bubbling. Vegetable stock makes a meat-free version. Adapted from “French Onion Soup” in the Wikibooks Cookbook (CC BY-SA 4.0). Scaled to 4 bowls with 1 litre of stock (the source's 1.5 litres serves 6) and added a time for cooking the onions.
