  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • 1 Pot
  • Blender

Method
 

  1. In a pot melt the butter over medium heat
  2. Add the onions and cook till they just start to soften

  4. Bring to a simmer and cook for 45 min uncovered
  5. Stir occasionally
  6. Take off the heat and blend the soup till smooth

Notes

When using the blender make sure to remove the centre plug of the lid and place a kitchen towel over the hole to allow steam to release. This prevents your blender from building up steam from the hot soup and making a big mess.
