- 8 medium yellow onions, peeled and sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup dry sherry
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
- salt and pepper
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated swiss cheese

- In two batches, saute the onion in the butter in a large frying pan. Cook only until limp. Do not brown or discolor.
- Deglaze the pan, or remove the onion from the pan and pour sherry, scrapping the pan with a wooden spoon to dissolve the brown, toasted onions.
- Mix the onions, the sherry, nutmeg, salt, pepper and heavy cream together and place in a baking dish. Top with the Swiss and then Parmesan or Romano.
- Bake at 350 until top is a bit brown and bubbling, 15 - 20 minutes.
