Healthy Homemade Clear Mushroom SoupVeg

1

Finely chop the onions, garlic, celery, and leeks.

2

Be mindful to use only a small amount of celery and leeks to ensure their strong flavors do not overpower the mushrooms.

3

Place your pan on the stove and add a portion of margarine.

4

Once the margarine has melted, add the chopped onions, garlic, celery, and leeks to the pan. Lightly fry them to release their flavors.

5

Incorporate the mushrooms into the pan with the other vegetables and stir gently to combine.

6

Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the mushroom mixture.

7

The pepper adds extra flavor, which is particularly helpful if you are preparing this as a soothing remedy for a cold.

8

Continue to cook the mixture for about one minute.

9

Pour in just enough water to cover the mushrooms.

10

Do not add too much water; the amount should depend on the quantity of mushrooms used.

11

Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce to a minimum heat.

12

Allow the mushrooms to simmer until they are soft and fully cooked.

13

Once the mushrooms are tender and the flavors have melded, remove from the heat and serve the soup while it is very hot.
