2 lbs potatoes, cubed (optional)

| Coat meat with flour. Melt butter in soup pot and add onions, meat, salt and pepper. Cook on medium heat until onions have turned clear and liquid has turned dark. Pour in the broth and stir. Add potatoes, mushrooms, wine and enough water to barely cover the ingredients. Turn up the heat and stir until steam begins to appear.
Lower heat, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes or until potatoes are soft, stirring occasionally. Fill a heavy soup bowl half full of soup, to with english muffin half (split side up), sprinkle cheeses on top of the muffin, place bowls on baking pan and broil until cheese has melted and started turning brown around the edges (about 5 minutes). |
