Onion and Sesame Soup with Coriander
2 Tbsp olive oil
4 cloves garlic, crushed
8 C thinly sliced yellow onions
½ C dry white wine
6 C chicken stock, or vegetable
1 ½ C plain yogurt
2 tsp toasted sesame oil (the dark oil found in Asian markets)
2 Tbsp chopped fresh coriander
Salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
Heat a large frying pan and add the oil, garlic and onions. Saute until the onions are tender (you may have to do them in batches). Place the onions in a 4 – 6 quart pot. Deglaze the frying pan with the wine and add to the pot along with the stock. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer, covered for 30 minutes or until the onions are translucent.
Remove from the heat and add remaining ingredients. Return to the burner to heat the yogurt. Do not boil. May serve with a slice of swiss cheese and crotons – or not. Serves 6 – 8. [Adapted from The Frugal Gourmet Keeps the Feast, Jeff Smith]
