Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion, diced
- 3 medium garlic cloves, minced
- 500 grams cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 250 grams button mushrooms, sliced
- 2 teaspoons thyme, fresh
- 1 cup coconut milk, full-fat
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced cremini and button mushrooms to the pot.
Season with the fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the mushrooms release their juices and start to brown.
Pour in the vegetable broth, stir, and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Lower the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Remove the pot from heat and blend the soup using an immersion blender until smooth. Alternatively, blend the soup in batches using a countertop blender, then return it to the pot.
Stir in the coconut milk and lemon juice, and heat gently on low until warmed through.
Adjust seasoning according to taste and serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
