Delicious and rich casserole served as a side to beef or poultry--lots of fat and calories, so you know it's excellent! I found it on a cooking program.

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 medium onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon sugar
3 teaspoons kosher salt
3 tablespoons clarified butter
1 tablespoon sweet sherry

6 eggs
2 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon grainy mustard
1 teaspoon finely chopped thyme

2 cups grated gruyere cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
