INSTANT POT CARAMELIZED MUSHROOM ONION SOUP

Steps:

• Slice the onions thinly then cook in the Instant Pot on the saute setting for 7-10 minutes until the onions start to brown.
• While the onions are browning, clean and slice the mushrooms and finely chop/crush the garlic.
• Once the onions are golden brown, add the sugar and cook for another minute or two then add the mushrooms, garlic and thyme.
• Allow to saute for a few minutes then stir in the flour.
• Pour in the wine and Balsamic vinegar and allow to come to a simmer.
• Pour in the beef stock and season generously.
• Cover with the lid (make sure it's in the sealing position) then cook the soup on high pressure for 7 minutes.
• Once the soup has cooked, quick release the pressure. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary then serve with your bread of your choice.
• I served the soup with cheesy toasts which worked perfectly with the delicious soup.
