Hello everybody.
When I asked the kids what do you want for lunch tomorrow? They suggested onion soup.I usually make it in Ramadan, then forget about it rest of the year.so onion soup it is.I’ll make a pasta salad on the side with a bit of beans from yesterday. .that’ll be a nice lunch.
For the soup you need:
*4 large onions.
*1/2 cup vegetable oil or butter.but oil is much lighter.
*4 big tablespoons flour.
*4 cups water.
*1 cube chicken stock or you can use homemade chicken stock if you have instead of water.
*One small spoon :salt.pepper. cinnamon.all spice.
*Pinch of nutmeg powder.
*Any kind of cheese.
Cut onions to small pieces, I used to cut it to thin slices but small ones are easier when you eat.heat the oil then add onions till very tender on low heat.add all spices.salt.chicken cube and flour..mix well,then add water, leave to boil then turn down the heat, leave to simmer .you may need to add more water if soup is too thick.
Serve the soup with croutons topped with mozzarella, cheddar, kashkaval cheese or any kind you prefer.or you can roast buns in the oven, remove the pulp and pour soup in it.
As for the salad you need:
*Mixed colored sweet peppers sliced.
*Fresh mushrooms slices.
*One cup sweet corn.
*1 big spoon lemon juice.
*2 big spoons mayonnaise.
* 1 small spoon balsamic vinegar.
*1 small spoon of salt and oregano.
*Half a cup olive oil.
*2 cups boiled shaped small sized pasta.
Mix lemon juice, mayonnaise, vinegar, salt, organo together. Add all peppers, mushroom, corn and mix with sauce.
Add pasta and toss it well before serving.
I’m positive kids will love it…plus it’s a way to let them eat some veggies.
Hope you like today’s recipies and please send me if you ever try any of them, either you liked them or not.I’ll really appreciate it.
