Homemade Mushroom Soup with Toast
Ingredients:
2 Tbsp butter or olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
500g button mushrooms, sliced
1 tsp thyme, fresh or dried
2 Tbsp of plain flour
3 cups vegetable or chicken stock
1 cup whole milk or cream
Salt and pepper, to taste
Garnish: chopped parsley
METHOD:
In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 mins. Add garlic and cook for another min.
Add mushrooms and thyme. Cook until mushrooms release their moisture and begin to brown, about 10–12 mins.
Sprinkle flour over the mushrooms and stir well to coat. Cook for 1–2 mins.
Gradually pour in the stock while stirring to avoid lumps. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10–15 mins until thickened.
Stir in milk or cream. Season with salt, pepper. Heat through but don’t boil.
Pour into bowls and garnish with chopped parsley and serve with crusty toast.
