Mushroom and corn Soup

       
 
Creamy Mushroom and sweet corn soup are one of the easiest soups that you can make..it is not only delicious but easy to make. It is so flavourful...you will want to make it again and again.

I never liked mushrooms since I did not eat this from childhood in India. But when we moved to the USA...Vegetarians like us have to keep up our vitamin d levels due to extreme winters..and mushroom is the only source of vitamin D in the produce aisle that is available to us along with the sunlight (very rare in winters). So occasionally we like to eat Organic Edible Mushrooms. Here I have used organic Cremini mushrooms in this recipe.

    Mushrooms and sweet corn are like a match made in heaven. They blend together very well. Also, the onion and garlic enhance the taste of this soup. This can be made with minimal ingredients that are all at home. This doesn't require any milk or whipping cream. So it's low in fat content. Perfect with toasted bread/garlic breadsticks. Lets dive into the recipe.



INGREDIENTS:
Cremini Mushrooms sliced 200 gms( 1tbsp for garnishing)
Sweet corn kernels1/2 cup (1tsp for garnish)
Sweet Onion medium chopped 1
Garlic cloves chopped 2-3
Butter 1tbsp (1tsp for sauteeing garnishes)
Black pepper powder according to your taste 
Real Salt as per taste
Italian dry herbs 1/2 tsp
Water 1 cup

INSTRUCTION:
1. In a pan, add 1tsp butter and 1tbsp sliced mushroom and saute till it turns golden brown. Keep aside.

2. In the same pan, add the remaining butter, chopped garlic, chopped onion and mushroom slices...saute for 2 to 3 minutes till they turn translucent.
3. Now add sweet corn and saute again for 1 minute.


4. Add Italian dried herbs powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper along with water. Bring to a boil and let it boil for 2 to 3 minutes.

5. Once it starts boiling, Remove from heat and blend it smoothly with the help of a hand blender.

5. After blending, adjust the consistency of the soup by adding water if required. On low to medium flame boil the soup again for 5 minutes. Garnish with sauteed sliced mushrooms,sweet corn kernels, and cilantro and serve hot!!

I hope you would love to try making this delicious warm bowl of soup. If you do try...please tag your post with #archanasvegfoodchronicles on Instagram and tag me @archanasvegfoodchronicles.Do give me feedback in the comments section. Subscribe for amazing recipes.

Eggless Brazilian Cheese Bread

Pao de Queijo (pronounced as pown -deh- kay-zho) aka Brazilian Cheese Bread is a small baked cheese bun, a popular snack and breakfast food that originated in the state Minas Gerais of Brazil. These are bread/buns usually made with tapioca flour, milk, oil, cheese, salt, and egg/egg substitute. Since I don't use eggs in my baking I have used vinegar instead. These are soft, chewy and so addictive. I love to make healthy bakes from all around the world. Inspired by this YouTube video by Something Dave and I gave it a try as it was an eggless version.These came out so well. These are super simple and easy to make with just five ingredients. A must try because they are gluten-free, contain no yeast, no baking powder, yet so soft and cheesy😋 I had never tried baking with tapioca flour...and found it so interesting to bake with. The dough is too sticky and you will need some extra flour to be dusted to make balls out of it. I have used plant-based pa...
