My french onion soup recipe is one of my most viewed videos, and for good reason - it's delicious. So I thought I would remake it and share the recipe with you all. Here's how to make a great french onion soup at home.
Ingredients
- 2kg brown onions, thinly sliced
- 50ml olive oil
- 100g (3.5oz) unsalted butter
-
salt
- 2 bay leaves
- 100ml brandy
- 2 tbsp flour
- 6 dashes Worcestershire sauce
- 4 dashes Maggi seasoning
- 1L (1 quart) beef stock
- 2 sprigs rosemary
- 1 baguette, thinly sliced
- 150g (5.3oz) Gruyère cheese, grated
Directions
To a large pot over medium-high heat, add the butter and oil. When the butter is melted, add the sliced onions with a big pinch of salt.
- Stir well and turn the heat to medium-low. Cook the onions slowly for 1.5 hours, stirring every 5-10 minutes. (You can do this faster at a higher heat, but you will need to stir more frequently.)
- Once the onions are caramelised and have a good dark colour, add the bay leaves, then the brandy, and allow the alcohol to burn off.
- Next, add the flour and stir.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Add the Worcestershire sauce and Maggi seasoning, followed by the beef stock and rosemary. Stir and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Toast the sliced bread on both sides for 4-5 minutes each side.
- Ladle the soup into your serving bowls, then add 2-3 croutons to the top, followed by the grated cheese.
- Place under the grill of your oven until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
