     6)    Maida (Refined white wheat flour) – 1 tablespoon

     7)    Salt – ¾ teaspoon

To Cook:

Wash and drain the mushrooms. Peel the onion and the potatoes and chop into chunks. Set a pressure cooker on high heat. Pour in the water. Tip in the chopped mushrooms, potatoes and onion. Close the lid. As soon as you hear the first whistle, lower the heat and let simmer for 5 minutes. Now switch off the heat and let cool naturally. When cool, transfer the contents (along with the stock) to your food processor. Tip in the maida and grind to fine paste.

Transfer to your soup pan. Pour in the milk and tip in the salt. Set on high heat and stir continuously. The soup will thicken and start to boil nicely. Switch off the heat. Your delicious, ultra-simple, nutritious mushroom soup is ready to serve. This soup is so tasty, so very natural that it requires neither any spice, nor any garnish. Even pepper powder is not required. Be sure to try.

Enjoy!!!
