HOW TO COOK FRENCH ONION SOUP

HOW TO COOK FRENCH ONION SOUP


I had a french friend. We met in the university back in 2004. One day he invited me to come to his flat. It was Friday evening so obviously it was like a dinner meeting. I liked the foods but there is one food that really caught my attention, the French Onion Soup. I really liked it so I asked him how to cook this one and he gave me the recipe. The next day I told my mom about this French Onion Soup and I asked her for the ingredients. I tried myself to cook this soup and believe me its not as hard as you think to cook this delicious french onion soup. Here is the exact recipe my friend gave me.



INGREDIENTS:

¼ cup margarine
3 medium size sweet onions (sliced)
1 regular size cheddar cheese
1  french bread
2 pieces small beef broth cubes (about 10g each)
3 cups of water
5 gloves of garlic (minced)
¼ cup all purpose flour
1 tablespoon brown sugar




COOKING PROCEDURE:

  1. In a sauce pan, heat the margarine until melted.
  2. Add the sugar and stir.
  3. Cook the garlic and onions until golden brown.
  4. Add the flour, stir until perfectly blended with the onions and sugar.
  5. Add the water and broth to the pan, stir well, adjust the heat to boil, let it boiling for about 8 minutes.
  6. Slice 4 pieces of bread, about 1 inch thick and toast them until golden brown.
  7. Put the soup into a bowl and put the toasted onto the top of the soup.
  8. Scatter the cheese onto the soup.
  9. Bake in 220 degrees C for 10 minutes to melt the cheese.
  10. And voila! Serve.
