One could think that onion soup would be boring and bitter dish. Well, could not be more wrong. French people trust for their classic dishes for reason. This recipe is worth trying!
I prepared a smaller amount of soup than what is regurlarly recommended in cook books. I started by peeling and slicing regular yellow onions, leeks and garlic. I fried them in butter for about 5 minutes and after that added two tablespoons of wheat flour and mixed it well with the onions.
I continued with adding six desilitres of water with one vegetable stock cube. Seasoning is in quite important role in this dish. I used black pepper, thyme (very important!) and a hint of salt to season.
The longer you let the soup boil on the stove, the better the soup gets. However, I let it boil 30 minutes and was happy with the result. I was too hungry to wait longer! I hope you enjoy it, too!
