This rich and flavorful Ukrainian Mushroom Soup is made with sautéed mushrooms, onions, carrots, woodsy herbs, potatoes, and vegetable broth. A generous splash of half-and-half adds richness without the need for heavy cream. It’s cozy and delicious and pairs so well with a crusty baguette on the side to dunk in.
To make this soup, start by sautéing the onions and carrots in a non-stick pan. Transfer the cooked vegetables to a plate and add the sliced mushrooms to the same pan. Cook until the mushrooms start to brown. In the meantime, bring the vegetable broth to a boil and add in the potatoes. Cook for 10 minutes, then add in the sautéed vegetables, ¾ of mushrooms, and thyme. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook until the potatoes are tender. Stir in half-and-half, and bring the soup to a boil. Add in the minced garlic and remove the soup from the heat. Use a blender to purée the soup until smooth and creamy. Serve in bowls topped with the reserved sautéed mushrooms, cracked black pepper, and a sprinkle of fresh thyme if you wish.
To make the Ukrainian Mushroom Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large non-stick pan over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and add 1 finely diced onion and 1 diced small carrot. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
Transfer the cooked onions and carrots to a plate and add 8 ounces sliced mushrooms to the same pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid evaporates and the mushrooms start to brown, about 5-7 minutes.
In the meantime, to a large stockpot, add 4 cups vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Then add 2 diced potatoes, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook for about 10 minutes.
Add in the sautéed onions and carrots, ¾ of mushrooms, 1 teaspoon thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 5 more minutes.
Pour in 1 cup half-and-half and bring the soup to a boil. Then add in 3 minced garlic cloves and remove the soup from the heat.
Use an immersion blender to purée the soup.
To serve, ladle the soup among bowls and top with the remaining mushrooms and cracked black pepper. Enjoy!
