Mushroom Soup

By

The nice thing about soups is that they are so easy to prepare. You don't have to spend much time at all preparing anything as nothing needs to be chopped nicely as it's only going to be blended up anyway. It's also very easy to manipulate the servings. If you want to serve more people, just use more stock (and maybe a few more mushrooms so that you don't lose the mushroomy goodness!)

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Fry onion and garlic for about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for another couple of minutes.

Step 2

Add the stock, salt, and pepper. Bring to the boil and simmer for 25 minutes, until the mushrooms are soft.

Step 3

Stir in the milk. With a stick blender or food processor, blend the mixture to break down the vegetables resulting in a mixture of thick consistency.

Step 4

Return to the heat briefly to ensure a good temperature. Serve with a chunky bread, and topped with a swirl of cream and chopped parsley, if desired.
