Re: Homemade Soups
Orrible out, all wet and cold so time for a lovely bowl of comfort soup.French Onion Soup
4 large onions, chopped
2 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
4 slices of crusty bread
40g grated Gruyere, Swiss or Cheddar cheese
Pepper to taste
1L beef stock made from a Knorr Stock Cube or aStock Pot.
Heat the oil and butter in a deep saucepan and saute the onions for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat and cook the onions for 20–30 minutes or until golden brown, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Pour over the stock. Season with pepper and simmer partially covered for 20 minutes.
Toast a few rounds of crusty bread for chunky croutons.
Spoon the soup into oven-proof serving dishes. Top each crouton with grated cheese and pop one or two into each bowl.
Place under the grill for a few minutes until golden brown. Serve immediately.

Me too Nom. And that is the beauty of soups. Instant warmth and a feel good factor all in one
