Cheese Soup (Lanarkshire)

1 tb Finely chopped onion

1/2 pt (1 1/4 cups) hot water

1 pt (2 1/2 cups) milk

2 tb Flour

Seasoning (?) I use a -touch of Herbes de -Provence. 2 tb Finely grated Stilton cheese

A little butter or margarine Fry the onion, without browning, in the butter or margarine. When soft add the hot water; when the fragments of the onion are fully cooked, add the milk to increase the measure to about a quart, and as soon as it boils add in the flour mixed smooth with milk. Season to taste, stir and simmer until it thickens. A moment or so before serving, mix in the cheese. Posted by John Hartman. Courtesy of Fred Peters.
