CREAMY MUSHROOM SOUP

Now it is summer, not the right time for heavy food with cream and butter but we suddenly feel to have something creamy and still light for lunch and it can fill stomach till dinner without crawling for some snack at 4 pm. So I decide to make creamy mushroom soup.

I. What do you need ? (for 4 servings)

- 1 box of button mushroom
- Few leaves of basil (can use coriander instead of basil leaves)
- 1 box of Amul cream
- Pepper, salt
- 1 teaspoon corn flour
- Half of Knoor soup cube (mushroom)
- 4 bowl of water (use the bowl you are going to serve the soup to measure water)

II. How to make ?

Wash and rinse mushroom carefully under running tap to remove dust and soil. Thinly slide. Put mushroom into water and bring to boil, add salt to taste. Mix corn flour with some room temperature water before added to soup to avoid cuddle. Add corn flour and cream into soup and stir. Add salt to taste. Sprinkle chop basil leave and pepper before serve.

Soup should not be too thin or too thick. You can add more corn flour.

III. Tips

In Delhi, button mushroom is packed in poly bag or blue plastic box, you can find in INA or many shops in South Delhi, in winter it is everywhere and quite cheap.
Good button mushroom should be white, small size and absolutely closed.

You can get Knoor soup cube from INA, there are chicken soup cube and mushroom soup cube.

Shake well the box of cream before open and add slowly to the soup and stir during time of adding.
