Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon butter (optional)
1 cup diced onion
1/2 cup diced celery
1/2 cup diced leek
1 lb portabella mushroom, gills removed, trimmed and diced

6 cups vegetable stock
salt & freshly ground black pepper

  • Add the sherry and sauté until the liquid is reduced to about 1 tablespoon, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the stock and increase temperature to bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes; season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper.
  • Puree batches of soup in a well-covered blender, processing until smooth and all the soup has been made creamy.
