Mushroom soup

Cookinero 11 Sep 2025

Dishes prepared from mushrooms help maintain the health of blood vessels, memory and protect against viruses. Therefore, mushroom soup is a good opportunity to add healthy and nutritious food to your diet. Its recipe does not include meat, so it is suitable for vegetarians or during Lent. But even if you add a little chicken or beef, the dish will not become very fatty, since it initially contains only 50 calories per 100 g. You can use any mushrooms, both fresh and frozen.

How to cook Mushroom soup

Fry the vegetables. Heat a frying pan with oil and put the mushrooms in it. Fry for 5-7 minutes on medium heat until the excess liquid evaporates, then add the carrots and onions. Fry until the vegetables are soft, remembering to stir, about 4-6 minutes.

Step 2

Mushroom soup

Cook the stew. Pour water into a saucepan, add potatoes and fried vegetables. Cook for about 20 minutes, then add garlic, salt and pepper. Turn off the stove and let the stew sit for 5 minutes.
