A delicious soup. Though originally french, it is now being widely served in Egypt. For veggies, remove cheese, use vegetable stock
instead of chicken's and don't use butter.
~ Ingredients ~
In a saucepan, melt half the butter over medium heat. Add flour and stir until light brown.
Gradually add stock mixing well to prevent lumps. Add chopped onion and crushed garlic.
Leave to simmer over low heat for about 30-40 minutes. Season to taste.
3 large onions coarsely chopped
1 clove garlic crushed
¼ cup butter
2 tbsp flour
4 cups chicken stock
4 toasts
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
salt & pepper to taste
Cut bread into squares and grill in medium oven. Remove from oven. Use remaining butter
to spread toast with a thin layer and sprinkle with grated cheese.
Pour soup in serving bowls and decorate with a bread slice each. Place under oven grill seconds
before serving and serve immediately.
