nice
There is no way the onions will brown or caramelise in 3 mins. This recipe does not work produce French Onion Soup if you follow the instruction at Step 2 - I tried it - you end up with a strong tasting onion soup. There is discussion about this on the Magimix Australian Facebook group. I will try again but using the stir fry function at an higher heat to caramelise the onions.
