Instructions
1
✓
Dice the onion finely. Melt the butter in the frying pan.
Tip: Let the butter melt on low heat, do not burn the milk proteins in it.
2
✓
Sweat the onion in the butter until translucent (approx. 5-8 minutes). Do not brown!
Tip: Slow sweating brings out the natural sugars of the onion without producing bitter roasted substances.
3
✓
Sprinkle with the curry powder and crushed garlic. Fry for 1 minute.
Tip: The fat-soluble aromas of the curry powder are released at this stage.
4
✓
Pour in the stock, reduce by half, then add the cream.
Tip: Reducing the stock concentrates the flavours before the cream dilutes it.
5
✓
Cook until thickened, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with parsley at the end.
Tip: If it is too thick, you can dilute it with a little milk.
