Preparation steps
1.
Peel onions and cut into thin rings. Heat oil in a saucepan and saute onions for 10-15 minutes stirring slowly until soft. Season onions with sugar, salt and pepper and let simmer about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown.
2.
Then add broth and wine, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for another 15 minutes. Peel garlic and press with a garlic press into the saucepan and season with lemon juice, salt and pepper.
3.
Preheat the oven to 240°C (approximately 475°F) or preheat the oven broiler.
4.
Divide onion soup between 4 ovenproof soup bowls. Place 3 slices of baguette over each soup bowl and sprinkle cheese on top. Bake under oven broiler for 2-3 minutes until the cheese starts to melt. Serve garnished with chives.
