Kreacher's French Onion Soup | Harry Potter Inspired Recipes
A taste of wizarding delight with caramelized onions, a spellbinding broth, and a cheesy bread hat straight from Grimmauld Place.
Ingredients
- 2-4 cups onions thinnly sliced
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons white wine
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons flour
- ½ cup beef broth
- 1 can sheet dough or pizza dough
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese shredded
- ½ cup Gruyere cheese shredded
- salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cut each onion lengthwise, then thinly slice them.
- In a saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onions to the pan. Once the onions begin to brown, reduce the heat to medium.
- Sauté the onions until they are browned through, which usually takes about 30 minutes.
- Add the remaining butter to the pan along with the minced garlic and flour. Scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Deglaze the pan by pouring in the white wine. Stir well to incorporate all the flavors.
- Pour in the beef broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Let it boil for 5 minutes, then reduce the heat and simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Fill ramekins about ¾ full with the soup. Cover the top of each ramekin with a generous amount of Parmesan and Gruyere cheeses.
- If using pizza dough, cut it into evenly sized rolls and place two on top of each ramekin.
- Bake the ramekins in the oven for about 15 minutes or until the tops of the bread are golden brown.
- Allow the soup to cool for 15 minutes before serving. Serve this magical soup to good witches, wizards, and Muggles alike. Enjoy!
