食譜 ～ 法式洋蔥湯 (French onion soup)

法國五月，應下景整個法式洋蔥湯啦！其實無心插柳，咁啱煲咗清雞湯，順便用嚟整洋蔥湯。呢個絕對係簡單版法式洋蔥湯，隨手攞材料，用自家制雞湯、麵包。洋蔥同芝士都係屋企有嘅材料。正式嘅洋蔥湯用牛肉湯，落酒。我呢個比正式會淡咗啲，但老公都話好味！

牛油（可用橄欖油）適量
法包 兩片

黑胡椒 適量
桂葉 1片


做法：
1. 用低火煮溶牛油，加入洋蔥絲，不停攪拌，約15分鐘至金黃色。
2.加入牛肉湯及桂葉，慢火煮30分鐘，加鹽、黑椒及酒調味。
3.預備可入焗爐湯碗，倒入洋蔥湯，放一小片已烘法包，再加芝士碎於湯面。
4.放入焗爐焗至芝士熔化，即成。
