Hello my fellow foodies! I made a delicious soup tonight and I have to share this recipe because it is CHEAP, TASTY, and serves 4 (or 4 meals for you!!) This potato, onion, and garlic soup is a free meal if you have the leftover items necessary in your kitchen. It takes a while to make but the prep time is short (15 min) so if you are studying you can steal a look at your books while the soup simmers! All in all you need 45 minutes but you can eat it for at least three meals afterwards.
15 minutes prep/45 minutes cook
4 people/servings
You need: 2 onions, 1 large clove garlic, one large/two medium sized potatoes, one vegetable stock cube, and of course butter and oil
It would be nice (basically you should include this): a handful of parsley, 1/2 tbsp of thyme
prep: chop the onions in slices, and chop the garlic in to fine pieces. Place 4 tsp of olive oil in a pan and add a good chunk of butter. Once melting at medium heat, add the onions and garlic and allow to cook until the onion smells sweet and is nice and soft while stirring very occasionally (should be 25 minutes).
In the meanwhile quarter the potato(s) and chop into slices. Roughly chop the parsley as well. After the onions have cooked for 25 minutes add the potatoes and onions, salt and pepper the mixture, and allow it to fry for a few minuts. In the meantime boil 1 litre of water and add a stock cube. After frying for a few minutes, dump everything in the pan into the pot of boiling soup and cook for a minute before reducing the heat to a simmer (medium heat). Slow cook the soup for 20 minutes. Add lots of salt and you are ready to enjoy!
TIP... slow-cooking onions makes them sweet and really brings out the flavor. make sure you cook this dish sloooowly
its delicious, trust me.
