Soup season is well and truly here, so a recipe developer shared his you can whip up a cosy winter warmer that requires minimal effort and no hours slaving over the hob (Image: zi3000 via Getty Images) Soup season is firmly upon us, and few things are quite as satisfying as a steaming bowl of soup to warm you from the inside out. While making soup from scratch might sound like a daunting prospect, one recipe developer has revealed a clever tweak to the cooking process that makes it simpler than ever. Recipe developer, cookbook author and social media sensation Nathan Anthony, widely known as Bored of Lunch, has recently shared his mouth-watering French onion soup recipe, billed as the ultimate winter warmer. Rather than preparing the soup's ingredients in a pan, he swaps it out for an underrated yet invaluable kitchen appliance. In a recent Instagram post, Nathan wrote in the caption: "What's better than a rich brothy soup with crusty cheesy bread on top? This is the laziest version possible so I apologise to the French nation." You can simply let the slow cooker work its magic (Image: Getty) So what exactly makes this soup recipe so effortless? Put simply, you won't need to spend hours standing over the hob, reports the Express . Instead, Nathan opts for the slow cooker. There's no need to pre-cook the onions either — simply pop them straight into the slow cooker and let the appliance do all the hard work. Nathan said: "Slow cooker French onion soup. What is nicer than soup with cheesy, buttery, crusty bread on top to just dip in? I used pretty much every onion in Ireland." With a cooking time of between eight to 10 hours, you can toss all the ingredients in and return home from work to a ready-made meal. Nathan's video has already racked up over one million views, attracting 7,379 likes and 197 comments. Dominic wrote: "Oh good lord that looks incredible." Another said: "As a kid I HATED onions. As an adult, I find a way to have them in every meal!! Looks amazing. Thx." Adam commented: "The cure for every broken heart." Robert suggested, "It's probably very good but I believe sautéing the onions until caramelised is far superior! Also add sage for deeper flavour," while another agreed, "Gonna make this one. I've saved so many. This looks like the best French onion recipe I've seen." So if you're after an incredibly simple and fuss-free soup recipe that serves as a warming winter dish, here's how you can recreate Nathan's recipe in your own kitchen. Slice up all the onions – yes, you will shed some tears. Add all ingredients to the slow cooker apart from the stock, cheese and bread, then cook for eight to 10 hours on high. You can speed up the process by softening them briefly in a pan before transferring them to the slow cooker. Stir in the stock, top with buttered bread and cheese, then place under the grill for eight minutes.
