Five Lily Soup 🍲

Description:

This delightful vegetarian rendition of the classic French onion soup boasts a flavorful blend of five different members of the onion family. Completely devoid of beef stock, it relies instead on a rich vegetable stock to elevate its savory profile. Whether you opt for a homemade concoction like my Rich Brown Vegetable Stock or a premium canned alternative, the result promises to tantalize your taste buds. For a non-vegan indulgence, pair it with garlic croutons generously topped with melted cheese. Mmmmm!

Instructions:

  1. Saute Onion and Leeks: Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add finely sliced onions and leeks, and sauté until soft and translucent, releasing their aromatic essence into the air.

  2. Incorporate Shallots and Garlic: Introduce finely chopped shallots and minced garlic into the pot, allowing them to join the flavorful symphony. Continue cooking slowly for approximately 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened, cooked down, and acquired a luscious golden-brown hue.

  3. Add Green Onions: Sprinkle in the finely chopped green onions, imparting a fresh, vibrant layer of flavor to the simmering concoction.

  4. Infuse with Flavor: Pour in the rich vegetable stock, soy sauce, and molasses, infusing the soup with depth and complexity.

  5. Simmer to Perfection: Scrape up any browned bits clinging to the bottom of the pot, enhancing the soup’s richness. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer, partly covering the pot. Allow it to simmer for approximately 30 minutes, adjusting the duration to achieve your desired vegetable texture.

  6. Serve and Enjoy: Ladle the fragrant soup into bowls, savoring its aromatic allure and hearty goodness. For an indulgent touch, serve alongside garlic bread croutons adorned with a generous blanket of melted cheese.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, consider using homemade Rich Brown Vegetable Stock.
  • Adjust the simmering time to achieve your preferred vegetable texture—shorter for firmer vegetables, longer for a softer consistency.
  • To elevate this dish further, top each serving with a dollop of vegan sour cream and a sprinkle of fresh chives.

Enjoy Your Culinary Adventure! 🌿
