In a heavy-based saucepan over medium-low heat, sizzle butter and oil until fragrant. Add onions and 1 teaspoon salt, cooking uncovered and stirring occasionally for 45 to 50 minutes until very soft.

Prepare delicious cheesy bread: Preheat oven to 180°C. Drizzle oil over both sides of the bread and rub garlic on both sides. Place the bread on 2 baking trays and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until light golden, flipping once. Sprinkle cheese on one side of the bread and bake for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until the cheese melts.
Serve the hot soup in bowls, garnish with cheesy bread, add a sprinkle of pepper, and enjoy.
