Ingredients

4.5 cups sliced button mushrooms
1 medium-sized onion finely chopped
1.5 teaspoons minced garlic cloves
2 cups unsweetened oat milk or any other plant-based milk
3 cups vegetable stock or water
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt & pepper to taste
3 tablespoons cornstarch
¼ cup water
1 tbsp olive oil or vegan butter

Instructions

Heat oil in a pot. Add onion, garlic, and saute until onion turns translucent.
Add sliced mushrooms and cook until they start releasing moisture. Add thyme, salt, and pepper. Saute for a minute.
Add vegetable stock, mix, and cover the pot. Cook covered for around 10 minutes.
Remove the lid and add milk. Stir continuously for 2-3 minutes. Cook uncovered for another 2-3 minutes.
In a bowl, mix cornstarch and water. Add this cornstarch slurry to the soup. Stir continuously for a minute to avoid lumps. Cook for around 2 minutes or until the soup thickens. Turn off the heat.
Garnish with ground pepper and chopped fresh herbs of your choice. Enjoy!

Notes

To make the soup tastier and more interesting, use a combination of different mushrooms you like.
If you don’t like chunks of mushrooms in your mushroom soup and prefer a creamier soup, blend the soup after adding vegetable stock.
For extra creaminess, add coconut cream to the soup.
