Creamy Mushroom and Potato Soup

Make lunch feel special—whip up a velvety cream soup! I loved this one at first sight, and after the first spoonful I knew it was a keeper. The taste is hard to put into words: silky, gently savory, with warm mushroom notes that never overpower. Give it a try—it's genuinely delicious and worth the little effort.

  • Let's get cooking:
    • Peel and rinse the potatoes, cut them into rough chunks, and boil until tender.
    • Drain the potato cooking water into a bowl and set it aside—you may need it at the end to thin the soup.
    • Mash the potatoes with a potato masher until smooth.
    • Peel the onion, dice it, and sauté in the vegetable oil until soft.
    • Rinse the mushrooms, pat them dry with a paper towel, slice them thin, and add them to the onion.
    • Cook until all the liquid the mushrooms release has evaporated.
    • Transfer the sautéed onion and mushrooms to a blender and blitz until smooth (an immersion blender in any deep container works just as well).
    • Combine the mushroom purée with the mashed potatoes, pour in the hot cream (about 2 cups), season with salt and pepper to taste, and blend the soup smooth. If it's thicker than you like, loosen it with a little of the reserved potato water.
    • Return the soup to the stove and bring it just to a boil—do not let it actually boil—then ladle into bowls.
  • Garnish with a pinch of dried mushroom seasoning and sprigs of fresh dill.
  • The result is simply wonderful!
  • Enjoy!
