Onion Soup for serious onion lovers

[Guest guest]

I had this for lunch today and it was very tasty but very powerful. I'm an

onion/garlic fan as if you can't tell.

 

Onion Soup

 

2 tbsp oil/butter

2 cups chopped onions

2 cups thinly sliced leeks

1/2 c chopped shallots

6 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups veggie broth

1 tsp dried thyme

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

1 cup heavy cream (I used milk)

 

Melt butter in large pan on medium heat. Add onions, leeks, shallots and

garlic. Cover and sweat over low heat, stirring occasionally until tender and

turning golden. about 25 minutes

 

Stir in stock, thyme, salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Lower heat to low,

cover and simmer 20 minutes.

 

Puree in batches in blender or in pot with immersion blender. Whisk in cream

and bring to a simmer.

 

Adjust seasonings if required

 

Makes about 6 cups. Sprinkle each serving with chopped chives and a few

croutons.
