Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 16

Extra virgin olive oil (I used Private Reserve Greek EVOO)
16 oz baby bella mushrooms, cleaned well and halved or sliced
Kosher salt
1 yellow onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
8 oz white mushrooms, cleaned and chopped
½ cup canned crushed tomatoes
Black pepper
1 tsp coriander
½ tsp to ¾ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp cumin
6 cups low-sodium broth (vegetable broth or beef broth)
1 cup pearl barley rinsed
½ cup packed chopped parsley

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch Oven, heat extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking. Add baby bell mushrooms and cook until mushrooms soften and gain some color (about 5 minutes or so). Remove from the pot and set aside for now.
  • In the same pot, add a little more extra virgin olive oil. Add onions, garlic, celery, carrots, and chopped white mushrooms. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes over medium-high heat. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Now, add crushed tomatoes and spices (coriander, smoked paprika, cumin). Cook for 3 minutes or so, tossing regularly.
  • Add broth and pearl barley. Bring to a rolling boil for 5 minutes, then turn heat down. Cover and let simmer over low heat for about 30 minutes or until the barley is tender and cooked through.
  • Add the cooked bella mushrooms back to the pot and stir to combine. Cook for about 5 minutes or so until mushrooms are well warmed through.
  • Finish with fresh parsley. Transfer to serving bowls and enjoy!

CURRIED VEGETABLE SOUP



Curried Vegetable Soup image

I created this recipe uniting my favorite spices with frozen vegetables to save time. It's easy to scale up to feed a crowd. I usually prepare enough to make sure there are leftovers. For a buffet, keep this soup warm in a slow cooker, and set yogurt out in a separate dish to let guests serve themselves. -Heather Demeritte, Scottsdale, Arizona

CREAMY CURRIED ROOT VEGETABLE SOUP



Creamy Curried Root Vegetable Soup image

This is a hearty, thick soup with a little bit of heat from the curry. I've used this combination of vegetables a few times with great success, but using earthy tubers, taproots, and alliums is the key, so try different things. For this recipe, you'll need a large skillet or wok, a medium saucepan, and a food processor or blender. I enjoy spicy foods, so you may want to reduce pepper and curry amounts. I used half milk and half cream once and got a very nice creamy soup, but some may prefer the thinner consistency of using only milk. This recipe can be adjusted for vegan palettes by using an olive oil substitute for the butter, coconut or soy milk, and an anchovy-free Worcestershire sauce. Balsamic vinegar can do in a pinch.

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons butter
6 Hakurei turnips, chopped
6 red radishes, chopped
2 heads garlic, chopped
6 green onions, chopped
5 carrots, peeled and chopped
1 ½ pounds red potatoes, cut into cubes
1 quart vegetable stock
1 bay leaf
1 ½ cups milk
