Mushroom Soup

I am hooked on this at the moment. While it may not win points for being the best looking, it tastes so good. Serve with some paleo-bread – yum!

 

40g butter (grass-fed ideally)
1 onion, finely chopped
12 large field-mushrooms, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tbs dry sherry
1L vegetable or chicken stock (low salt Massel stock or home-made)
2 tbs flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
Pouring cream

Melt the butter and fry the onion until translucent.
Add mushrooms and garlic, continue frying for around 15 minutes, moderate heat.
Add sherry – increase heat until bubbling.
Cool slightly and transfer to a blender or thermomix. Process into a smooth paste. Add stock and blend until smooth.
Add 2 tbs cream and blend.
Heat gently & serve with parsley.
Serve with some paleo-style seedy bread for lunch or a snack.
