Mushroom Soup - Fab Food 4 All

This mushroom soup is so quick and simple to make and utterly delicious.  The addition of butter and milk makes it taste like a cream of mushroom soup and together with the garlic, it’s just heavenly!

It can be vegetarian or not depending on whether you use vegetable or chicken stock!

My family loves this soup and it’s made from just a punnet of mushrooms so very cheap to make too. I often come across reduced mushrooms so make this soup for lunch regularly!

It’s great served with garlic bread or garlic croutons.

Ingredients

  • 300 g / 12oz mushrooms roughly chopped
  • 50 g / 2oz butter
  • 1 large onion finely chopped
  • 2 Cloves garlic crushed
  • 25 g / 1oz Plain flour
  • 400 ml / ¾ pt milk
  • 400 ml / ¾ pt chicken or vegetable stock
  • salt and pepper
  • A few chives snipped to garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a pan.
  • Add the onion and garlic and sweat under a lid gently on a low heat until softened, stirring occasionally (about 10 mins).
  • Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook gently for 5 minutes.
  • Add the flour and stir for 1 minute.
  • Stir in the stock, milk and seasoning.
  • Liquidise and adjust seasoning if necessary, bring back to serving temperature.
  • Serve garnished with snipped chives (optional).

Notes

I find a stainless steel hand blender invaluable for soup making as there is no need to wait for the soup to cool down and it negates the need to transfer it to a liquidiser.

      Thanks Jeanne, I only remember tomato soup as a child or thin consomme’s my grandmother would make with meat balls and white doughy balls in (a Danish traditional soup).

    Superb recipe – great with crusty bread. (I really need to get a hand blender as I want to make more soups.)

      Maya, we had a hand blender as a wedding present and then getting one with a stainless steel stick revolutionised soup making as I no longer needed to wait for the soup to cool in order to blend of liquidise! You can get them really cheaply these days!

    I tend to go for chunky soups but your post has made me remember just how much I enjoy the simplicity of a creamy mushroom soup. I will have to try this recipe 🙂
