Cream of mushroom soup

Cream of mushroom is the second variety of preparing mushroom soup. I have already posted the first version few weeks back. You can see that under soups tab. This is a easy way of doing soup.

I am using button mushroom to make this soup. You can also use other variety of mushrooms. Taste differs with each variety. Mushroom is very good for health and kids love soup, so let us combine these two to give them yummy and healthy snack.

Ingredients:

Button Mushroom - 1 cup
Butter - 2 tbsp
Onion (medium size) - 1 sliced
Ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp
Salt as required
Black Pepper - 2 tsp
Water as required

Preparation:

1) Cleaning Mushroom

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

2) In a pan heat 1 tbsp butter and saute the cut mushrooms and onions for few secs. Add little water and let it boil for a min.

3) Remove the pan from heat and let it cool down to room temp.

4) Grind the sauted mushroom and onion to a paste.

5) In a pan heat 1 tbsp butter and add in the ginger garlic paste. Then the grind paste and some water.

6) Let it boil for 2 mins in medium low.

7) Once you get the desired consistency add in required salt and pepper and remove it from heat.

8) Serve it hot with some corn chips....
