Dora's Rich French Onion Soup image

This soup was first inspired by Mrs Weasley's onion soup that she serves to Harry upon his arrival at the Burrow soon after the end of his 5th year at Hogwarts. From that I looked at through my favourite old cookbook and adding some personal flare, created the best, thick, rich onion soup I have ever had.
