The flavors just blend soooo well, and it’s ultra creamy and delicious.
It’s also really rather a snap to make.
I used 3 kinds of mushrooms in this soup. White button mushrooms, brown button mushrooms (portobellini) and portobello mushrooms. I’ve also made it in the past with just white button mushrooms and portobello mushrooms, so it just depends on what’s easy to get hold of.
And then the creaminess is from the coconut milk. I’ve also made this recipe using coconut cream, but it’s very rich. If you like things ultra rich, then you can also try it with coconut cream, but I think you’ll find the coconut milk is quite rich enough.
