I will whip up a quick batch of cream of mushroom soup for my husband and myself when we're hungy. It is such a simple cream of mushrooms soup and yet it is so yummy!
Makes 2 portions:
- 1 small onion
- 3 or 4 cups sliced mushrooms (I used white button mushrooms and chestnut mushroom)
- 1 cup chicken stock
- punch of nutmeg
- ground black pepper
- 2tbsp heavy cream
Fry onion for a couple of minutes in a little oil or butter. Add mushrooms and stir until they're soft and have released liquid. Add the stock, nutmeg and black pepper. Let simmer for 10 minutes. Use immersion blender to blend about half of the soup, then add in the cream (or you could use cream cheese) and stir.
Done!
You will be enjoying the soup in less than half an hour!
