		French Beef Au Gratin Directions ------------- 1/2 cup margarine 4 cups thinly sliced vidalia or white onions 1 pound beef tenderloin or sirloin,- sliced into 1/2 inch cubes 3 tablespoons all purpose flour 1 tablespoon firmly packed dark brown sugar 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper 4 cups beef broth 2 cups cooked fettuccine 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese Directions ------------- 1) In a large heavy-bottomed pan, over medium heat, melt margarine. Add the onions and saute stirring often, until caramelized but not burned, 15-20 minutes. Witha slotted spoon, remove the onions to a medium bowl. 2) Add the beef to the pan and brown well on all sides. Return the onions and any juices to the pan. 3) In a small bowl, mix the flour, sugar, cumin, salt, and pepper. Add to the pan and stir 1 minute until bubbly.

Divide the beef mixture over the pasta. 6) In a medium bowl, stir the cheeses together and sprinkle evenly over the beef. Broil untilthe cheese is melted and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the broiler and serve.
