BAKED ONION SOUP WITH A GRUYÈRE CHEESE BREAD CRUST

Steps:

• Heat 4 tablespoons of butter and the oil in a heavy-based saucepan, add the onions, garlic, thyme and bay leaf, cover with wet baking (parchment) paper and a lid and cook over a very low heat for 1 hour, until the onions have turned golden and are meltingly soft. During the cooking, stir the onions from time to time, to prevent them burning. Season to taste. Add the wine, stock and sugar, then bring to the boil and simmer for 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 400ºF. If the saucepan is ovenproof (if not, transfer to an earthenware soup tureen), place the bread slices on top, sprinkle with Gruyère and then drizzle the remaining butter, melted, over the cheese. Bake in a hot oven for 15 minutes or until bubbling and golden. To make this in a slow cooker: Heat the butter and oil in a heavy-based saucepan, add the onions, garlic, thyme and bay leaf and cook over a medium heat for 10 to 12 minutes, until the onions have started to soften and colour. Transfer to your slow cooker, cover with wet baking (parchment) paper and a lid and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours. Turn the slow cooker to high and cook, uncovered, for 20 minutes to darken the onions, stirring from time to time. Add the wine, stock, sugar and seasoning, cover and cook for 40 minutes. Then continue with step 4 above.

BAKED POTATO SOUP WITH BACON, GREEN ONION, BROCCOLI & CHEDDAR RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Melt the butter in the bottom of a large pot over medium-high heat. Add flour and whisk to combine until thickened. Whisking continuously, slowly pour in the milk and whisk until mixture is smooth. Be sure to get the corners of the pan. Add all of the remaining ingredients and lower the heat to medium. Stir occasionally until the cheese is melted and the soup is warmed through. Be sure to scrape bottom of the pot as you stir so the soup doesn't burn. Serve when warm and enjoy! Additional notes: • This soup can be cut in 1/2 and there would still be plenty for 4 people. • When cutting potatoes, I'd recommend cutting even smaller than what you see in my photo, especially b/c they're already cooked. • Slice bacon in pieces before cooking so you don't have to crumble later and get messy. You can put in a tablespoon or so of bacon fat into the soup when heating. • On pre-baking your potatoes: Since this recipe uses potatoes that are already baked, you might want to toss a few in the oven the night before to bake them off ahead of time. Baked, they'll keep in the fridge for a week (easily), so dinner can be ready to go any night of the week! • Microwave frozen broccoli for 2 min. before putting into soup w/remaining ingredients.
