French onion soup
Recipe by Al's diner
About 600g onions , very thinly sliced
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon Cognac
1/2 cup red wine
3 cups beef stock (i used veg stock, but i think beef stalk would be great)
Salt and pepper
4 croûtes, for garnish (i used wholegrain bread, 2 slices)
Grated gruyère cheese, for garnish (i used cheddar and parmesan)
Prep. Time → 5 min

1. Melt the butter in a soup pot and sauté the onions until very soft, at least 20 minutes.
2. Add the Cognac and the wine one minute. Add the stock. Simmer, covered, 45 minutes.
3. Check the seasonings.
