Recipe Introduction


Mushrooms are high in B vitamins, which are said to reduce stress, and they also contain selenium, a trace element that is essential to human health and is good for the immune system.


List of Ingredients




500gm mushrooms, chopped
1ltr fresh vegetable stock
Few pieces of dried mushroom
2 tablespoons butter
1 onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons flour
1 bay leaf
Freshly ground salt and pepper
250ml cream

Recipe



Bring the stock to the boil. Add the dried mushroom, cover, remove from heat and set aside.

In a separate pan, sauté the onion in butter over a moderate heat until transparent.
Add mushrooms and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes.

Blend in the flour and cook for a few minutes. Gradually stir in the stock and bring to the boil. Add bay leaf and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove bay leaf and dried mushroom and blend in a processor.

Reheat, adding the cream and seasoning, then serve with your favourite crusty bread.
