Ingredients 

  • 3 tablespoon vegan butter spread
  • 2 medium onions peeled and diced (around140gram each)
  • 3 garlic cloves peeled and minced
  • 750 grams / 1 and ½ lbs mixed mushrooms
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves finely chopped
  • cup dry white wine optional
  • 5 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups / 1L vegetable stock
  • 1 tablespoon white miso paste heaped
  • ½ cup coconut milk
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a heavy-bottomed soup pot or dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onions and saute over medium to high heat for 3-4 minutes or until soft.
  • Add the mushrooms, thyme and salt to the pot and saute for 10-12 minutes until the liquid from the mushrooms as completely cooked off.
  • Turn the heat up to high and add the white wine. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the liquid has cooked off.
  • Turn the heat back down to medium and sprinkle the mushrooms with the flour. Stirring regularly, cook the flour for 2 minutes to ensure it isn't raw.
  • A cup at a time, stir in the stock and miso paste.
  • After the last cup of stock, add the coconut milk. Swap to a whisk and bring the soup up to a simmer, gently whisking. It will thicken as you whisk. Once you have your desired consistency, the soup is ready to serve.
  • Season with the pepper and more salt and serve.

Notes

Tip #1. To get a full-bodied flavoursome soup, take the time to cook off all the liquid from the mushrooms. This may take 10 - 12 minutes but it is so worth the time.
Tip#2. To ensure your soup thickens well, add the stock a cup at a time, stirring as you go.
