Baked white onions

I loved this dish since the first time my mum made it for us. It is simple ... but it requires some patience as it needs quite some time in the oven. You can use any kind of cheese here, but I would suggest either a slowly melting cheese (like Grouviere) or a grated mature cheese (like Parmesan).

Serves: 4 as side dish
FlexiPoints: 2.5

Suggested wines: ... depends on the what is served with it. Almost everything goes well.

Ingredients:
- 4 large white onions
- 2 tbsp oil
- 4 tbsp bread-crumbs
- 4 tbsp grated cheese (Parmesan or Grouviere)
- Salt as needed

How-to:
1. Clean and cut the onions is large slices.
2. Grease a baking tin with the oil. Place the onion slices on top. Season with salt.
3. Mix together the bread-crumbs and the cheese. Distribute the mix on top of the onion slices. Alternatively, you might want to make first a bread-crumb layer and than a cheese one. the latter approach works very well with grated Grouviere.
4. Bake at 200C for 30'/40' or until the onion is very soft. Try to use mostly a bottom slot in the oven and only the last 10' or so top slot.
