Cream of Mushroom Soup (Good enough to get you laid!)

So says Byron about this Mushroom Soup recipe and it certainly sounds mouthwatering, so it's next on my list to try! (Not to get laid, but cooking the soup!)

INGREDIENTS:

Soup:
  1. Mushrooms [lots]
  2. Bacon [2x rashers]
  3. 2x cups of Chicken Stock [which you put it into nearly all soups anyway]
  4. 1x Onion
  5. 1x Potato
  6. Cream [600ml]
(BATARD - PICTURE COURTESY OF THE WORLD WIDE WEB)

Side Dish:
  1. Parmesan & Onion Batard
  2. Garlic
(Batard is a type of bread, of which there are many many variations)

PROCESS:

Soup:

  1. Chop up everything into little bits, then fry it all in a large saucepan with a bit of butter. [about 5x minutes]
  2. When everything has gone soft and mooshy, add the Chicken Stock and boil it for about 15 minutes.
  3. Let it cool down a bit and then pour it into a food processor [or you could use a Bamix/Stick Blender] and puree it until it has a fine texture.
  4. Back into the saucepan, add the cream and gently simmer for 10x minutes, but make sure it doesn’t boil.
Side Dish:
  1. Slice the Batard and dry-fry it on the grill. (That sounds good enough to eat on its own!)
  2. When the bread is nicely toasted with the grill lines criss-crossed [because that looks really cool], rub garlic onto both side of the bread and add a light “dusting” of ground black pepper – but not too much!
