  •     gratinee normande
  • 375 gm onions preferably the purple breton type
  • 40 gm butter
  • 1 x very small bouquet garni
  • 250 ml sweet cider
  • 2 tsp flour
  • 650 ml chicken stock
  • 8 x thin slices french bread preferably from a baguette
  • 70 ml double cream

Directions

  1. Peel wash and finely slice the onions.
  2. In a saute/fry pan sweat them with 25g butter till pale golden brown.
  3. Add in the bouquet garni pour in 150ml cider and simmer for 5 min.
  4. Set aside.
  5. Heat the remaining butter in a saucepan.
  6. Stir in the flour and make a pale roux.
  7. Pour in the chicken stock and bring to the boil stirring continuously with a wire whisk.
  8. Cook for 15 min
  9. The cider gives a slightly mellower flavour to the classic soupe a loignon and makes it more digestible. Be sure to make this soup in large quantities; greedy people are apt to give themselves away by asking for a second bowlful.
