This recipe embodies the spirit of French cuisine by transforming simple ingredients into a warming weeknight meal.
French onion, beef, and mushroom stew with croutons is a modern twist on traditional French cuisine. It combines the heartiness of beef stew with the rich, umami flavours of French onion soup.
The origins of French Onion Soup can be traced back to Roman times, although the French elevated the dish to its current renowned status. Traditionally, it was considered a humble meal, made from onions and broth, and was a way for peasants to use abundant, inexpensive ingredients. Adding beef to this foundation transforms the soup into a more substantial stew, while mushrooms add an additional earthiness and texture layer.
The inclusion of croutons nods to the classic presentation of French onion soup, which is typically gratinéed with croutons and cheese. Made in a slow cooker, this dish can be prepared in the morning and left cooking for about five hours. Recipe compliments of Instant Pot. 567 g small cremini mushrooms quartered, divided 2 large sweet onions thinly sliced 454 g lean beef stew meat, cut into small pieces 57 g hard cheese, coarsely gratedPrepare your slow cooker.
