📝 Ingredients

  • 20 oz Baby Bella mushrooms ((sliced))
  • 1 carrot ((finely grated))
  • 1 onion ((diced))
  • 5 Tbsp butter ((unsalted))
  • 3 1/4 cups water
  • 1/2 tsp garlic salt
  • 1 tsp Vegeta Seasoning
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 mushroom bouillon cube
  • 1/2 tsp chicken bouillon powder
  • 1 clove garlic ((crushed))
  • 1/2 cup flour ((plus 3/4 cup water for slurry))
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Begin by toasting 1/2 cup flour over high heat in a dry skillet for about 2 minutes (or until flour turns tan). Transfer to a bowl and cool.
  2. 2Meanwhile, in a pot, fry mushrooms in butter over medium heat. Strain and reserve any mushroom juice after about 5 minutes (should have 1/2 cup). Transfer mushrooms into a bowl and set both aside.
  3. 3In the same pot, add 4 Tbsp of oil and saute the carrot and onion for about 5 minutes.
  4. 4To the pot, add the reserved mushroom juice, water, sauteed mushrooms, 1 1/4 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, bouillons, Vegeta, and garlic salt. Bring to a boil and simmer over medium-low heat for 20 minutes.
  5. 5Make a slurry by slowly whisking in 3/4 cup of cold water into the toasted flour. Whisk in the slurry to the simmering pot of mushrooms. Stir in the garlic and cream. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  6. 6Serve!
