REVISE THIS RECIPE AS NEEDED
8 oz fresh mushrooms, sliced
2 T onions, chopped
1 -2 garlic clove, minced (or garlic powder)
2 T butter
2 -3 T flour
2 c chicken or veggie broth
1 c cream
1/2 t salt
1/4 t pepper
1/4 t nutmeg
1/4 t dry thyme or 1 T fresh minced thyme
Melt butter in large frying pan. Add in onions, garlic, and mushrooms. Cook until onions are soft and mushrooms brown. Blend in 2 T flour and stir for 1-2 minutes to cook the flour. Add a splash of the broth and stir to make a thin paste to avoid clumping the flour, then add remainder and heat until slightly thickened while stirring frequently. Stir cream with additional 1 T flour and seasonings. Add in cream to soup. Simmer (not boil) to thicken while stirring frequently.
