Accompaniment
SponsoredFleurie Georges Duboeuf
The most favored of all the Beaujolais Cru, Fleurie enjoys a very floral bouquet with a refined, smooth taste. An elegant, beautifully made more-ish red with wild strawberry fruit and a fleshy texture.Buy this wine if you like: Light-bodied red with ripe fruit, perfect slightly chilled on a warm summer afternoon.
Description
MyDish: Once you’ve made your own, you’ll never open a carton again! Alpro Cream alternative adds that silky smoothness so essential to the perfect soup.

Pour 100ml of boiling water over the porcini mushrooms and leave to soak.
Heat olive oil in a large heavy-based pan over a medium heat. Add the shallot, garlic, thyme and fresh mushrooms. Continue cooking for 5 minutes until the mushrooms have reduced in volume by about half. Add in the stock and porcini mushrooms along with the soaking liquid.
Continue cooking for a further 20 minutes before adding in the Alpro soya cream and blitzing with a hand blender.
Ladle into soup bowls and finish off with a drizzle of cream and a sprinkle of parsley.
