Cream of Onion Soup image

I love creamy soups, but onion soup as we know it isn't creamy, so I came up with this recipe. It was a hit! So now every time I make it I have to make a big batch because we always go for seconds.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 large onions
3 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
2 Tbsp flour
4 c chicken broth or water and bouillon
2 c milk
salt and pepper to taste
cream for serving

Steps:

  • 1. Quarter the onions lengthwise then thinly slice sideways. Place the sliced onions and olive oil in a large pot over medium low heat. Stir often till onions are translucent.
  • 2. Add the flower and stir till all the liquid is absorbed. Gradually add the chicken broth stirring well after each addition to prevent any lumps from forming. Add the milk, the salt and pepper and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer partially covered for 20 - 30 minutes or until onion is tender.
  • 3. For serving, place some cream in each bowl (about 1/4 cup depending on personal preference) then ladle the soup over the cream, stir and enjoy.
