Creamy Garlic Mushroom Soup

 

I decided to make this delicious soup purely because there was a large amount of reduced mushrooms in the shop, and I love mushrooms. The soup is really creamy and tasty. 

Ingrediants:

- 2 boxes of Button Mushrooms (chopped)

- 2 Onions (chopped)

- 6 Garlic Cloves (crushed)

- 1-2 tbsp of Flour

- spoonful of Butter

- tspn of Thyme

- pint of Vegetable Stock

- pot of Single Cream

- Salt 

- Pepper

1. Finely chop both onions and melt the butter in a large pan on a low heat. Add the onions to the melted butter and cook for a few mins until they are soft. Add the garlic and cook for a further few mins and then add the chopped mushrooms, thyme, salt and pepper and saute them until they are cooked.

2. Sprinkle the mushrooms with the flour and really stir it all in. Then add the stock and simmer for about 30 mins.

3. Take it off the heat and blend the mushrooms as much as you can with a hand held blender. Then stir in the cream.

Serve in a bowl with a slice of toast. You can keep the rest in the fridge or freeze some of it.
