Classic French Onion Soup
Ingredients:
- 0.5 lb Onions
- 2 garlic cloves
- olive oil
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 25oz beef broth
- 3oz white wine
- 2 laurel leaves
- 2 thyme branches
- 4oz grated Gruyère cheese
- butter
- pepper
- salt
- muscat
- 1 baguette
Preparation:
Cook the homemade onion soup
Melt butter in a pot over medium heat. Add sliced onions and stir fry for about 20 minutes until onions turn light brown. Be careful to not overheat and burn! Now add your diced garlic and fry for 2 more minutes. Increase temperature to high, wait for a minute while stirring and add white wine. Bring to a quick boil. Now add your thyme, laurel leaves and beef broth and stir gently. Add salt and pepper and simmer for 20 more minutes.
Heat up your Otto Grill
Heat up your Otto Grill on max temperature for 3-4 minutes and bring your grill grate to Meat-O-Meter level 3.
Time to grill some soup
Pour the homemade onion soup into heat resistant ceramic molds. We recommend mold large enough to hold around 10oz of soup with some head space for bread and cheese. Top up with 1-2 slices of the baguette. Then put a layer of the grated Gruyère cheese on top – add as much cheese as you like!
