Cheese soup (lanarkshire)

6 servings

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
1tablespoonFinely chopped onion
½pint(1 1/4 cups) hot water
1pint(2 1/2 cups) milk
2tablespoonsFlour
Seasoning (?) I use a touch of Herbes de Provence.
2tablespoonsFinely grated Stilton cheese

Directions

A little butter or margarine

Fry the onion, without browning, in the butter or margarine. When soft add the hot water; when the fragments of the onion are fully cooked, add the milk to increase the measure to about a quart, and as soon as it boils add in the flour mixed smooth with milk. Season to taste, stir and simmer until it thickens. A moment or so before serving, mix in the cheese.
