Hi, I'm David Panart, welcome to the produce made simple kitchen, where you go to resource for everything fruits and veg. Today we're making a very simple French onion soup and we're going to change it up a little bit by making it a vegetarian option. Alright, to start off I'm going to show you how to cut an onion. So usually what I do is I'll cut off the two ends, then slice down the middle, it makes a little easier to peel. So what I like to do when I'm cutting is once you cut it in half, it gives you two flat surfaces to put down. For this recipe you're going to want to cut them thinly into longer slices, you don't really want to dice it because then you're going to add to me dancing. Now with this recipe to use about two cups of onions, depending on the size of the onions, specifically with ones like these, it probably takes you two full. So now that we have the onion sliced, we're ready to put them into the pot. We're using a more shallow pot just so we can show you how the ingredients are coming out together. So you can add your butter in there. Now you're going to want to cook this on medium because if you cook it too high, you're probably going to burn the soup. And the great thing about onions is they add so much flavor to the dish and onions are very common in a lot of different traditions, a lot of cultures, you put onions at the aeromatics, they bring out a lot of flavor. So really excited to see how these turn out today. So you're just going to want to let these simmer and the natural sugars in the onions are going to bring that sweetness to it and the butter will slowly caramelize them for you. So we're about five minutes in and you can already see the color coming into the onions and the smell right now is like absolutely amazing. Alright, so after about 15 minutes, as you can see, the color is all there, the onions are caramelized. Now it's time to add our vegetable broth. Stir it in a little bit. Add the sherry as well. Alright, so after it's been cooking for about 20 minutes, you're ready to start putting into your bowls. Now you don't have to have these fancy bowls. You can use whatever is readily available to you. Just make sure that it's up and proof for when we boil on the oven. Alright, after you have your soup into the bowls, now you can add some croutons or you can also use just any bread that you have around the house. I recommend you can cut it into the circle and fit it in there. Nice and easy. And what's also cool about it is you can toast it so it gives a lot better of a malafio I like to say. Alright, after you've had your croutons in, then you can start slicing some of the Swiss cheese. I recommend just cutting them into long and sliced slices like so. And then you can just lay it over the bowl and it's the perfect way to broil them all in the sweet, though then into the oven. Also, if you don't have a slicer like this, that cuts them into these perfect slices for me. You can also just cut them with a knife, just make sure that the slices are pretty thin. When you're putting the cheese on, for people who have had French onion soup, you do know sometimes the cheese will melt over. So to make the easy cleanup for you guys, I recommend just kind of layering it so that most of the cheese falls into the bowl rather than into your oven. So when a traditional French onion soup, they actually use three cheeses. They use Swiss cheese, provolone and parmesan cheese. So for this one, we're going to make it a little simple for us. And we're just going to use Swiss cheese, which actually gives you that awesome stringy texture. And it's usually my favorite one to put. Alrighty, we got these bad boys right out of the oven. You can cook them on low for about five minutes, max, just until the cheese melts. Alright, let's get in here and I'll show you that goodness we are looking for. Oh, magical, it's like heaven. Alright, so I've waited long enough for it to cool down and now I can finally enjoy this. That is so good.
