Ingredients

onions
4 large
of beef stock (use home made onion stock to make a vegetarian soup)
1 liter
of flour
1 tbsp
butter
1 unit
of bread
4 slices
of garlic
1 clove
olive oil and butter
1 unit

Method

Slice the onions into rings and sauté them gently in the butter (don't use olive oil for this). Don't rush this, let the onions brown very gently. If some brown bits appear on the bottom of your pan, don't worry, these are the sugars from the onions that have caramelized. They'll dissolve when you add the stock.

Add the flour and stir. The flour will seem to have disappeared, but has been absorbed into the butter. This will give the soup its characteristic slight thickness.

Add a quarter of the stock and stir for a while. Add another quarter of the stock and keep stirring. Repeat for the remaining stock.

Crush and chop the garlic. Put the olive oil and butter into the pan and lightly sauté the garlic.

Increase the heat a little and fry the slices of bread until golden.
