Ingredients

Servings
  • 60 g butter
  • 1 gold onion finely chopped, or white onion
  • 2 garlic minced, cloves
  • 350 g Chestnut mushroom sliced
  • 150 g shiitake mushroom sliced
  • 2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 480 ml vegetable stock or chicken stock
  • 120 ml double cream fresh
  • parsley to garnish (optional, handful, chopped
  • sea salt freshly cracked black pepper
  • black pepper freshly cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-low heat. Add in onion, garlic and mushrooms, and stir-fry, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Sprinkle the flour into the pot, and stir to heavenly coat the mushrooms. Season to taste.
  3. Pour in the stock and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until slightly reduced, about 5 min.
  4. Reserve ¼ cup of mushrooms and set aside. Transfer the remaining mixture into a food processor or use a stick blender to blend until smooth and creamy.
  5. Return the blended mushroom mixture into the pot, pour in double cream and season to taste with salt and black pepper. Continue to cook and reduce for another 5 minutes, or until you reach the desired thickness.
  6. Pour in the reserved cooked mushrooms, sprinkle with fresh parsley and season with freshly cracked black pepper.

Notes

  • For gluten-free mushroom soup, substitute all purpose flour with your go-to gluten-free flour mix, or with rice flour.
  • For vegan mushroom soup, substitute butter with extra-virgin olive oil, and double cream with soy cream, or cashew cream or onion puree.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
