Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, for 30-40 minutes until they are well caramelised.
Deglaze the onion pan with a little of the stew liquid and add the onions to the pot with the beef.
Cover and continue to simmer for until the beef is tender, about 30 minutes.
Heat your oven grill to 200oC.
Arrange the baguette on a baking sheet and rub the bread with the garlic.
