Rich Two Onion and Garlic Soup

Submitted by YummySmellsca

"When you use a rich, roasted vegetable stock or mushroom stock (I like my home made one - Recipe #465649 - it's as dark and flavourful as beef), the flavour of the onion, leek and garlic melt into a luxurious bowl of warmth that you'll never miss the meat in."
