Creamy Mushroom Soup

Mushroom is well known for its health benefits. It has all essentials needed by our body. There are tons of recipes with mushroom as main ingredient. My favorite is mushroom soup. I like soup a lot. I know it is a must and good to include mushroom in our diet once in a week.



It is very easy to make mushroom soup at home. It tastes really delicious. Like me my kid also loves soups. Mushroom is all what he needs to make that a little healthy. There are 2 ways of preparing mushroom soup. The recipe here is the simplest of it. I will post the other version of making mushroom soup later. Let do version 1 today...

Ingredients:

Button Mushroom - 1 cup
Butter - 2 tbsp (unsalted)
Corn flour - 2 tbsp
Onion - 1 finely chopped
Ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp
Milk - 2 cups
Pepper as required
Salt as required
Oregano leaves to garnish

Preparation:

1) Cleaning Mushroom

Mushroom should be clean before use. Wipe gently with a damp cloth or kitchen tissue to remove all black spots on it. Then wash mushrooms in running water for just few seconds. Do not soak in water.

2) Cut mushroom into medium slices. In a small bowl mix the corn flour with a tbsp of milk. Make sure there are no lumps.

3) In a pan heat butter and saute onions and ginger garlic paste. Once the onions turn translucent add in the sliced mushrooms.

4) Cook for 2 or 3 min. Add milk and stir.

5) When milk begins to boil add in the corn mixture. The whole thing will get thicker.

6) At your desired consistency add salt and pepper and garnish with oregano leaves.

7) Serve hot with corn chips in it.

Notes: 

1) Ginger garlic paste is optional.

2) After adding corn mixture stir continuously to avoid sticking to the pan.

3) Like oregano you can also add parsely, basil or any variety. This just adds up an extra aroma.

4) Soup gets thick when it comes to room temperature. So have when it is hot. While reheating add little milk to it to attain your desired consistency.
