for my tea tonight there will be a SIMPLE BREAD & ONION SOUP


This soup contains 3 main ingredients ...bread , onions and milk  ( milk of your choice ).

You need to cut the bread in cubes (70 gm) and toast the cubes on all sides .or easier still toss the cubes in a pan over a moderate heat .
Transfer the cubes to medium sized bowl and add 3 cups of milk .
Set aside to let the bread soak up the milk .

Now melt 1 tbs of ghee in a frypan and add 350 gm of thinly sliced onions over a medium heat , continue to cook without burning until well caramelised .Then add the milk and bread mix and continue to cook without simmering until the bread is completely softened , add 1 cup of water and 1 packet of French onion soup mix .

When the onions and bread  are done pour into a processor .
Season with cracked black pepper .
Blend until smooth .
Pour back into a saucepan and simmer and let the soup cook for 5 minutes .
Serve soup in a cup or bowl and garnish with a tsp of crème fraiche and finely chopped chives .
Enjoy ....
