Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add vermicelli and toast, toss frequently with tongs. After 2 minutes, add chopped onions, continuing to toss until golden brown (about 2 minutes more).

Remove from heat, sprinkle with cheese and cover; let stand for about 3 minutes until cheese is melted.
