Golden onion soup
This recipe should probably come with a warning, as some tears are guaranteed (wearing goggles is my best defence). This is a lighter soup than French onion soup, however, if you want to make it richer, then saute´ the onions until sticky and caramelised and use beef stock.
Preparation time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 30 minutes Serves 4
500g brown onions (about 4 medium)
30g butter
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon flour
1 litre chicken or vegetable stock Small glass (150ml) white wine
1⁄2 teaspoon sugar
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste
Peel and slice the onions thinly – you can use the slicing attachment on a food processor. Melt the butter in a large saucepan. Add the onions and cook over a low heat for about 15 minutes, until the onions have softened and are lightly coloured – make sure they don’t get too brown.
Stir through the flour, then add the stock, wine and sugar and cook for a further 15 minutes. Add the Worcestershire sauce and vinegar, and season to taste – the amount of salt required will depend on the type of stock used.
Serve hot with grilled cheese toast.
