Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Ingredients for 4-5 people • 1 larger white onion • 1 larger red onion • 4-5 Shallot, which is a very small onion, it is best to have it, forget it if you don’t have it~ • 1 leek, green onions are also delicious if not possible • 30g unsalted butter • 2tbs olive oil, preferably EXVoliveoil • 1/2 cup dry red wine • 5c ups stock, just use what you buy in the supermarket. If the stock is not enough, add water • 1tsp brown sugar • 1 clove garlic, smashed • A few slices of Baguette • Some Cheddarcheese or Gruyère cheese • 2tbs All-puroseflour, all-purpose flour, or the most common flour • Salt and ground black pepper

   

2. 2 Heat the olive oil and butter in a pan and wait until it bubbles slightly.

   

3. 3 Add various onions, garlic, and a large pinch of salt, and stir-fry for 2 minutes until the fat is evenly coated.

   

4. 4 Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Don't use too much heat. Caramel color means sweetness, while burnt color means bitterness. Then sprinkle in flour and brown sugar and stir-fry until onions are evenly coated, about 1 minute.

   

5. 5 Pour in the wine, gently scrape the sticky bits from the bottom of the pot and dilute it into the juice, wait for the wine to evaporate and the acidity to dissipate, about 2 minutes, then add the stock, cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 30 minutes, open the lid and season with salt and black pepper, remember to taste.

   

6. 6 Take advantage of this time to toast the bread slices. Preheat it to 200 degrees and bake it until golden brown. The time is not certain. Depending on the specific changes of the bread, you can brush it with olive oil or garlic oil, and you can also sprinkle some thyme, depending on your preference. Meanwhile put the baking tin in the oven to warm.

   

7. 7 After the soup is ready, take out the baking tin, pour onion soup, put a piece of bread, cover with a thick layer of cheese slices, put it back in the oven to brown the cheese a little.

   

8. 8 To be honest, you need to put a can like this in front of you in winter, grab a few more slices of bread, drink it and eat it, your belly will be warm and your heart will be warm, enjoy!
