List of Ingredients




2 tb Diced pancetta ham
1 tb Olive oil
4 White onions thinly sliced into rings
3 Garlic cloves chopped
3 1/2 c Hot chicken or ham stock
4 sl Italian Bread
3 tb Butter
2 3/4 oz Gruyere or cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper


Recipe



Dry fry the pancetta in a large saucepan for 3-4 minutes until it begins to brown.
Remove the pancetta from the pan and set aside until required. Add the oil to the
pan and cook the onions and garlic over a high heat for 4 minutes. Reduce the heat,
cover, and cook for 15 minutes, or until the onions are lightly caramelized. Add the
stock to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and leave mixture to
simmer, covered, for about 10 minutes. Toast the slices of ciabatta on both sides,
under a heated broiler, for 2-3 minutes, or until golden. Spread the ciabatta with
butter and top with the gruyere or cheddar cheese. Cut the bread into bite-
size pieces. Add the reserved pancetta to the soup and season with salt and
pepper to taste. Pour into 4 soup bowls and top with the toasted bread.
