Method

  • Start by thinly slicing your onions. Add to a pot with some olive oil over a medium/low heat, add the garlic, brown sugar, and thyme along with a splash of water and slowly cook until caramelised and jammy - this will take around 30-40 minutes. Add more water if needed.
  • While the onions cook, slice the baguette. Preheat the oven to 200 C, arrange on a baking tray with a drizzle of olive oil, and toast for 10 minutes until golden brown.
  • When the onions are ready, add the Boursin, creme fraiche, balsamic, salt, and pepper.
  • Stir through until melted, and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with crispy onions and fresh chives, and serve with toasted baguette
