Onion and Cider Soup.

Finely slice a large onion and put in a sauce pan with a good knob of butter and some oil on a low heat.
Let the onion slowly sweat down and caramelize, you want it soft and translucent but not coloured.
Add fresh chopped thyme, seasoning, cider and some veg stock, bring to a simmer and cook on for 30-45 mins.
Adjust the seasoning if you need to and serve.
