# How to Make:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking dish.
02 - Cook pasta in salted boiling water until just shy of al dente. Drain and set aside.
03 - In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter and olive oil. Add onions, salt, pepper, and sugar. Cook, stirring often, until onions are deeply golden brown and caramelized, 25–30 minutes.
04 - Add garlic and thyme, and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
05 - Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Pour in white wine, scraping up browned bits. Simmer 2 minutes.
06 - Add vegetable broth and Worcestershire sauce, bring to a simmer, and cook 2–3 minutes more.
07 - Reduce heat to low. Stir in cream and 1 cup (100 g) Gruyère cheese until melted.
08 - Add cooked pasta and Parmesan to the skillet, tossing to combine.
09 - Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining Gruyère on top.
10 - Bake 20–25 minutes, until bubbly and golden.
11 - Garnish with parsley before serving.
