MUSHROOM SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a large saucepan and cook the onions and garlic until soft but not browned, about 8-10 mins.
• Add the mushrooms and cook over a high heat for another 3 mins until softened. Sprinkle over the flour and stir to combine. Pour in the chicken stock, bring the mixture to the boil, then add the bay leaf and simmer for another 10 mins.
• Remove and discard the bay leaf, then remove the mushroom mixture from the heat and blitz using a hand blender until smooth. Gently reheat the soup and stir through the cream (or, you could freeze the soup at this stage - simply stir through the cream when heating). Scatter over the parsley, if you like, and serve.

DELICIOUS CREAM OF MUSHROOM SOUP

Steps:

• Slice all the mushrooms and cut up slices into small pieces.
• Chop onion.
• On medium heat, melt butter (I prefer margarine), saute onion until transparent.
• Add mushrooms, saute until soft.
• Add in thyme, salt, pepper and cayenne (optional).
• Add flour to mushroom mixture to create roue, stir in well, texture should be pasty but not gluey.
• Add in chicken broth till covered but enough that it's not watery but still has a thickness to the broth, stir while pouring to give proper consistency.
• Add in cream, and for a lighter version substitute with milk. Bring to a quick boil then reduce to simmer until thickened. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary. Served great with a nice baguette for dunking! Enjoy!
• Add in soya sauce, it nicely balances out the colour and flavour.
