Creamy Baked Garlic & Onion
Seasonal soup for the Northern Hemisphere, for February.
This is an easy no nonsense soup soup , and was tested on my Good Chums Alex & Scuba Ninja in Oz last year.
Serves 4
3 Large Onions , cut into 1/2 inch slices
1 Bulb garlic , cloves separated and peeled
565 ml [ 1 pint ] veggie or chicken stock
1 teaspoon dried thyme
25g [ 1 oz ] butter
220 ml [ 8 fl.oz ] double cream
1 tablespoon fresh parsley , chopped
Freshly ground black pepper.
Preheat Oven to 180 C / Gas 4
Place onions and garlic in a roasting tin , add 425 ml [ 3/4 pint ] of the stock sprinkle with thyme , season and dot with butter.
Cover tightly with foil and bake for 1 1/2 hours. Stirring once or twice during cooking.
The time may vary just get that caramelisation thing going and that will do, well it does for me.
Cool slightly , add remaining stock.
Blend until smooth.
Return to pan , add cream and parsley , the season to taste.
Heat gently for about 5 minutes.
Consume.
